An Oracle Concerning Tyre and Sidon
1The eoracle concerning fTyre.Wail, O gships of Tarshish,
for Tyre is laid waste, hwithout house or harbor!
From ithe land of Cyprus ▼
▼Hebrew Kittim; also verse 12
it is revealed to them.
2Be still, O inhabitants of the coast;
the merchants of kSidon, who cross the sea, have filled you.
3And on many waters
your revenue was the grain of Shihor,
the harvest of the Nile;
you were lthe merchant of the nations.
4Be ashamed, O mSidon, for the sea has spoken,
the stronghold of the sea, saying:
“I have neither labored nor given birth,
I have neither reared young men
nor brought up young women.”
5When the report comes to Egypt,
they will be in anguish ▼
▼Hebrew they will have labor pains
over the report about Tyre.6 oCross over to Tarshish;
wail, O inhabitants of the coast!
7Is this your exultant city
pwhose origin is from days of old,
whose feet carried her
to settle far away?
Ezekiel 28:16
16In the abundance of qyour tradeyou were filled with violence in your midst, and you sinned;
so I cast you as a profane thing from rthe mountain of God,
and I destroyed you, ▼
▼Or banished you
tO guardian cherub,from the midst of the stones of fire.
Joel 3:8
8I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the uSabeans, to a nation far away, for the Lord has spoken.”
