gCyprus.

2 hBe silent, you inhabitants of the coastland,
You merchants of Sidon;
As in DSS; MT Who passed over the sea, they replenished you

3 And were on many waters.
jThe grain of the
Heb Shihor
lNile, the harvest of the River was her revenue;
And she was the mmarket of nations.

4 Be ashamed, nSidon,
For the sea speaks, the stronghold of the sea, saying,
“I have neither been in labor nor given birth,
I have neither brought up young men nor raised virgins.”

They will be in oanguish over the report of Tyre.
