| א מַשָּׂא, צֹר: הֵילִילוּ אֳנִיּוֹת תַּרְשִׁישׁ, כִּי-שֻׁדַּד מִבַּיִת מִבּוֹא, מֵאֶרֶץ כִּתִּים, נִגְלָה-לָמוֹ. | 1 The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in; from the land of Kittim it is revealed to them. |
| ב דֹּמּוּ, יֹשְׁבֵי אִי; סֹחֵר צִידוֹן עֹבֵר יָם, מִלְאוּךְ. | 2 Be still, ye inhabitants of the coast-land; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished. |
| ג וּבְמַיִם רַבִּים זֶרַע שִׁחֹר, קְצִיר יְאוֹר תְּבוּאָתָהּ; וַתְּהִי, סְחַר גּוֹיִם. | 3 And on great waters the seed of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue; and she was the mart of nations. |
| ד בּוֹשִׁי צִידוֹן--כִּי-אָמַר יָם, מָעוֹז הַיָּם לֵאמֹר: לֹא-חַלְתִּי וְלֹא-יָלַדְתִּי, וְלֹא גִדַּלְתִּי בַּחוּרִים--רוֹמַמְתִּי בְתוּלוֹת. | 4 Be thou ashamed, O Zidon; for the sea hath spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying: 'I have not travailed, nor brought forth, neither have I reared young men, nor brought up virgins.' |
| ה כַּאֲשֶׁר-שֵׁמַע, לְמִצְרָיִם, יָחִילוּ, כְּשֵׁמַע צֹר. | 5 When the report cometh to Egypt, they shall be sorely pained at the report of Tyre. |
| ו עִבְרוּ, תַּרְשִׁישָׁה; הֵילִילוּ, יֹשְׁבֵי אִי. | 6 Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the coast-land. |
| ז הֲזֹאת לָכֶם, עַלִּיזָה; מִימֵי-קֶדֶם קַדְמָתָהּ יֹבִלוּהָ רַגְלֶיהָ, מֵרָחוֹק לָגוּר. | 7 Is this your joyous city, whose feet in antiquity, in ancient days, carried her afar off to sojourn? |
| ח מִי יָעַץ זֹאת, עַל-צֹר הַמַּעֲטִירָה, אֲשֶׁר סֹחֲרֶיהָ שָׂרִים, כִּנְעָנֶיהָ נִכְבַּדֵּי-אָרֶץ. | 8 Who hath devised this against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth? |
| ט יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, יְעָצָהּ--לְחַלֵּל גְּאוֹן כָּל-צְבִי, לְהָקֵל כָּל-נִכְבַּדֵּי-אָרֶץ. | 9 The LORD of hosts hath devised it, to pollute the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth. |
| י עִבְרִי אַרְצֵךְ, כַּיְאֹר; בַּת-תַּרְשִׁישׁ, אֵין מֵזַח עוֹד. | 10 Overflow thy land as the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish! there is no girdle any more. |
| יא יָדוֹ נָטָה עַל-הַיָּם, הִרְגִּיז מַמְלָכוֹת; יְהוָה צִוָּה אֶל-כְּנַעַן, לַשְׁמִד מָעֻזְנֶיהָ. | 11 He hath stretched out His hand over the sea, He hath shaken the kingdoms; the LORD hath given commandment concerning Canaan, to destroy the strongholds thereof; |
| יב וַיֹּאמֶר, לֹא-תוֹסִיפִי עוֹד לַעְלוֹז; הַמְעֻשָּׁקָה בְּתוּלַת בַּת-צִידוֹן, כתיים כִּתִּים קוּמִי עֲבֹרִי--גַּם-שָׁם, לֹא-יָנוּחַ לָךְ. | 12 And He said: 'Thou shalt no more rejoice.' O thou oppressed virgin daughter of Zidon, arise, pass over to Kittim; even there shalt thou have no rest. |
| יג הֵן אֶרֶץ כַּשְׂדִּים, זֶה הָעָם לֹא הָיָה--אַשּׁוּר, יְסָדָהּ לְצִיִּים; הֵקִימוּ בחיניו בַחוּנָיו, עוֹרְרוּ אַרְמְנוֹתֶיהָ--שָׂמָהּ, לְמַפֵּלָה. | 13 Behold, the land of the Chaldeans--this is the people that was not, when Asshur founded it for shipmen--they set up their towers, they overthrew the palaces thereof; it is made a ruin. |
| יד הֵילִילוּ, אֳנִיּוֹת תַּרְשִׁישׁ: כִּי שֻׁדַּד, מָעֻזְּכֶן. {ס} | 14 Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste. {S} |
| טו וְהָיָה, בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא, וְנִשְׁכַּחַת צֹר שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה, כִּימֵי מֶלֶךְ אֶחָד; מִקֵּץ שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה, יִהְיֶה לְצֹר, כְּשִׁירַת, הַזּוֹנָה. | 15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king; after the end of seventy years it shall fare with Tyre as in the song of the harlot: |
| טז קְחִי כִנּוֹר סֹבִּי עִיר, זוֹנָה נִשְׁכָּחָה; הֵיטִיבִי נַגֵּן הַרְבִּי-שִׁיר, לְמַעַן תִּזָּכֵרִי. | 16 Take a harp, go about the city, thou harlot long forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered. |
| יז וְהָיָה מִקֵּץ שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה, יִפְקֹד יְהוָה אֶת-צֹר, וְשָׁבָה, לְאֶתְנַנָּה; וְזָנְתָה אֶת-כָּל-מַמְלְכוֹת הָאָרֶץ, עַל-פְּנֵי הָאֲדָמָה. | 17 And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will remember Tyre, and she shall return to her hire, and shall have commerce with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth. |
| יח וְהָיָה סַחְרָהּ וְאֶתְנַנָּהּ, קֹדֶשׁ לַיהוָה--לֹא יֵאָצֵר, וְלֹא יֵחָסֵן: כִּי לַיֹּשְׁבִים לִפְנֵי יְהוָה, יִהְיֶה סַחְרָהּ, לֶאֱכֹל לְשָׂבְעָה, וְלִמְכַסֶּה עָתִיק. {פ} | 18 And her gain and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD; it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her gain shall be for them that dwell before the LORD, to eat their fill, and for stately clothing. {P} |
