From jthe land of Cyprus ▼
▼Hebrew Kittim; also verse 12
it is revealed to them.
2Be still, O inhabitants of the coast;
the merchants of lSidon, who cross the sea, have filled you.
3And on many waters

the harvest of the Nile;
you were mthe merchant of the nations.

the stronghold of the sea, saying:
“I have neither labored nor given birth,
I have neither reared young men
nor brought up young women.”

O oppressed virgin daughter of oSidon;

even there you will have no rest.”
