Oracle against Tyre

23 The oracle of Tyre:

Wail, ships of Tarshish, for the house is destroyed so that no one can enter;[a]
    it is announced to them from the land of Cyprus.
Be still, inhabitants of the coast,
    merchant of Sidon, who travels over the sea, they filled you.
And on the great waters is the seed of Shihor,
    the harvest of the Nile is its produce,
    and she was the merchandise of the nations.
Be ashamed, Sidon, for the sea,
    the fortress of the sea said, saying,
“I was not in labor,
    and I have not given birth,
and I have not reared young men,
    brought[b] up young women.”
When the report comes to Egypt,
    they will be in anguish at the report about[c] Tyre.
Cross over to Tarshish!
    Wail, inhabitants of the coast!
Is this your exultant one,[d] her origin from the days of long ago?
    Her feet brought her to dwell afar as an alien.
Who has planned this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns,[e]
    whose merchants were princes,
    her traders the honored ones of the earth?
Yahweh of hosts has planned it:
    to defile the pride of all glory,
    to humble all the honored ones of the earth.
10 Cross over your own land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish;
    there is no longer a harbor.[f]
11 He has stretched his hand out over the sea;
    he has made kingdoms shake.
Yahweh has commanded concerning Canaan
    to destroy her fortresses.

12 And he said,

“You will not continue[g] to exult, crushed one, virgin[h] daughter of Sidon.
    Arise, cross over to Cyprus! There will be no rest for you even there.”
13 Look at the land of the Chaldeans!
    This people no longer exists.
    Assyria destined[i] it for wild animals.
They erected its siege towers;
    they demolished its citadel fortresses.
    It made her like a ruin.
14 Wail, ships of Tarshish!
    For your fortress is destroyed.

A Pronouncement against Tyre

23 A pronouncement(A) concerning Tyre:(B)

Wail, ships of Tarshish,(C)
for your haven has been destroyed.
Word has reached them from the land of Cyprus.[a](D)
Mourn, inhabitants of the coastland,
you merchants of Sidon;(E)
your agents have crossed the sea[b]
over deep water.
Tyre’s revenue was the grain from Shihor—
the harvest of the Nile.
She was the merchant among the nations.(F)
Be ashamed, Sidon, the stronghold of the sea,
for the sea has spoken:
“I have not been in labor or given birth.
I have not raised young men
or brought up young women.”
When the news reaches Egypt,
they will be in anguish over the news about Tyre.(G)
Cross over to Tarshish;
wail, inhabitants of the coastland!
Is this your jubilant city,
whose origin was in ancient times,
whose feet have taken her
to reside far away?
Who planned this against Tyre,
the bestower of crowns,
whose traders are princes,
whose merchants are the honored ones of the earth?
The Lord of Armies planned it,
to desecrate all its glorious beauty,
to disgrace all the honored ones of the earth.
10 Overflow[c] your land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish;
there is no longer anything to restrain you.[d]
11 He stretched out his hand over the sea;(H)
he made kingdoms tremble.
The Lord has commanded
that the Canaanite fortresses be destroyed.
12 He said,
“You will not celebrate anymore,
ravished young woman, daughter of Sidon.
Get up and cross over to Cyprus(I)
even there you will have no rest!”
13 Look at the land of the Chaldeans—
a people who no longer exist.
Assyria destined it for desert creatures.
They set up their siege towers
and stripped its palaces.
They made it a ruin.
14 Wail, ships of Tarshish,
because your fortress is destroyed!
