for Tyre is laid waste, (D)without house or harbor!

2 Be still, O inhabitants of the coast;

your revenue was the grain of Shihor,
the harvest of the Nile;
you were (G)the 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.”
