The Message Bible MSG
1 Profecía sobre Tiro. Gemid, naves de Tarsis, porque Tiro ha sido destruida, sin casas y sin puerto; desde la tierra de Chipre les ha sido revelado.
1
Wail, ships of Tarshish, your strong seaports all in ruins! When the ships returned from Cyprus, they saw the destruction.
2 Callad, moradores de la costa, mercaderes de Sidón; tus mensajeros cruzaron el mar ,
2
Hold your tongue, you who live on the seacoast, merchants of Sidon. Your people sailed the deep seas, buying and selling,
3 y estuvieron en muchas aguas. Sus ingresos eran el grano del Nilo y la cosecha del río, y ella era el mercado de las naciones.
3
Making money on wheat from Shihor, grown along the Nile - multinational broker in grains!
4 Averguénzate, Sidón, porque habla el mar, la fortaleza del mar, diciendo: No he estado de parto, ni he dado a luz, no he educado jóvenes, ni he criado vírgenes
4
Hang your head in shame, Sidon. The Sea speaks up, the powerhouse of the ocean says, "I've never had labor pains, never had a baby, never reared children to adulthood, Never gave life, never worked with life. It was all numbers, dead numbers, profit and loss.
5 Cuando la noticia llegue a Egipto, se angustiarán por las nuevas de Tiro.
5
When Egypt gets the report on Tyre, what wailing! what wringing of hands! Nothing Left Here to Be Proud Of
6 Pasad a Tarsis; gemid, moradores de la costa.
6
Visit Tarshish, you who live on the seacoast. Take a good, long look and wail - yes, cry buckets of tears!
7 ¿Es ésta vuestra ciudad divertida cuyos días se remontan a la antiguedad, cuyos pies solían llevarla a establecerse en lugares distantes?
7
Is this the city you remember as energetic and alive, bustling with activity, this historic old city, Expanding throughout the globe, buying and selling all over the world?
8 ¿Quién ha planeado esto contra Tiro, la que concedía coronas, cuyos mercaderes eran príncipes, cuyos comerciantes eran los nobles de la tierra?
8
And who is behind the collapse of Tyre, the Tyre that controlled the world markets? Tyre's merchants were the business tycoons. Tyre's traders called all the shots.
9 El SEÑOR de los ejércitos lo ha planeado para abatir el orgullo de toda hermosura, para humillar a todos los nobles de la tierra.
9
God-of-the-Angel-Armies ordered the crash to show the sordid backside of pride and puncture the inflated reputations.
10 Inunda tu tierra como el Nilo, hija de Tarsis, ya no hay más restricción.
10
Sail for home, O ships of Tarshish. There are no docks left in this harbor.
11 Su mano ha extendido sobre el mar, ha hecho temblar los reinos; el SEÑOR ha dado orden respecto a Canaán para que destruyan sus fortalezas,
11
God reached out to the sea and sea traders, threw the sea kingdoms into turmoil. God ordered the destruction of the seacoast cities, the centers of commerce.
12 y ha dicho: No te divertirás más, virgen oprimida, hija de Sidón. Levántate, pasa a Chipre; aun allí no hallarás descanso.
12
God said, "There's nothing left here to be proud of, bankrupt and bereft Sidon. Do you want to make a new start in Cyprus? Don't count on it. Nothing there will work out for you either."
13 He aquí la tierra de los caldeos. Este pueblo ya no existía; Asiria lo designó para moradores del desierto. Ellos levantaron sus torres de sitio, despojaron sus palacios y la convirtieron en ruinas.
13
Look at what happened to Babylon: There's nothing left of it. Assyria turned it into a desert, into a refuge for wild dogs and stray cats. They brought in their big siege engines, tore down the buildings, and left nothing behind but rubble.
14 Gemid, naves de Tarsis, porque ha sido destruida vuestra fortaleza
14
Wail, ships of Tarshish, your strong seaports all in ruins
15 Y acontecerá en aquel día que Tiro será olvidada por setenta años, como los días de un rey. Al cabo de los setenta años le sucederá a Tiro como en la canción de la ramera:
15
For the next seventy years, a king's lifetime, Tyre will be forgotten. At the end of the seventy years, Tyre will stage a comeback, but it will be the comeback of a worn-out whore, as in the song:
16 Toma la lira, anda por la ciudad, oh ramera olvidada; tañe hábilmente las cuerdas, canta muchas canciones, para que seas recordada.
16
"Take a harp, circle the city, unremembered whore. Sing your old songs, your many old songs. Maybe someone will remember."
17 Y sucederá al cabo de los setenta años que el SEÑOR visitará a Tiro. Entonces ella regresará a su paga de ramera, y se prostituirá con todos los reinos sobre la faz de la tierra.
17
At the end of the seventy years, God will look in on Tyre. She'll go back to her old whoring trade, selling herself to the highest bidder, doing anything with anyone - promiscuous with all the kingdoms of earth - for a fee.
18 Y sus ganancias y su paga de ramera serán consagradas al SEÑOR; no serán almacenadas ni acumuladas, sino que su ganancia llegará a ser suficiente alimento y vestidura selecta para aquellos que habiten en la presencia del SEÑOR.
18
But everything she gets, all the money she takes in, will be turned over to God. It will not be put in banks. Her profits will be put to the use of God-Aware, God-Serving-People, providing plenty of food and the best of clothing.
