The Latin Vulgate VUL
Revised Standard Version RSV
1 onus Tyri ululate naves maris quia vastata est domus unde venire consueverant de terra Cetthim revelatum est eis
1
The oracle concerning Tyre. Wail, O ships of Tarshish, for Tyre is laid waste, without house or haven! From the land of Cyprus it is revealed to them.
2 tacete qui habitatis in insula negotiatio Sidonis transfretantes mare repleverunt te
2
Be still, O inhabitants of the coast, O merchants of Sidon; your messengers passed over the sea
3 in aquis multis semen Nili messis fluminis fruges eius et facta est negotiatio gentium
3
and were on many waters; your revenue was the grain of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile; you were the merchant of the nations.
4 erubesce Sidon ait enim mare fortitudo maris dicens non parturivi et non peperi et non enutrivi iuvenes nec ad incrementum perduxi virgine
4
Be ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying: "I have neither travailed nor given birth, I have neither reared young men nor brought up virgins.
5 cum auditum fuerit in Aegypto dolebunt cum audierint de Tyro
5
When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish over the report about Tyre.
6 transite maria ululate qui habitatis in insula
6
Pass over to Tarshish, wail, O inhabitants of the coast!
7 numquid non haec vestra est quae gloriabatur a diebus pristinis in antiquitate sua ducent eam pedes sui longe ad peregrinandum
7
Is this your exultant city whose origin is from days of old, whose feet carried her to settle afar?
8 quis cogitavit hoc super Tyrum quondam coronatam cuius negotiatores principes institores eius incliti terrae
8
Who has purposed this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, whose merchants were princes, whose traders were the honored of the earth?
9 Dominus exercituum cogitavit hoc ut detraheret superbiam omnis gloriae et ad ignominiam deduceret universos inclitos terrae
9
The LORD of hosts has purposed it, to defile the pride of all glory, to dishonor all the honored of the earth.
10 transi terram tuam quasi flumen filia maris non est cingulum ultra tibi
10
Overflow your land like the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no restraint any more.
11 manum suam extendit super mare conturbavit regna Dominus mandavit adversum Chanaan ut contereret fortes eius
11
He has stretched out his hand over the sea, he has shaken the kingdoms; the LORD has given command concerning Canaan to destroy its strongholds.
12 et dixit non adicies ultra ut glorieris calumniam sustinens virgo filia Sidonis in Cetthim consurgens transfreta ibi quoque non erit requies tibi
12
And he said: "You will no more exult, O oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon; arise, pass over to Cyprus, even there you will have no rest."
13 ecce terra Chaldeorum talis populus non fuit Assur fundavit eam in captivitatem transduxerunt robustos eius suffoderunt domos eius posuerunt eam in ruinam
13
Behold the land of the Chalde'ans! This is the people; it was not Assyria. They destined Tyre for wild beasts. They erected their siegetowers, they razed her palaces, they made her a ruin.
14 ululate naves maris quia devastata est fortitudo vestr
14
Wail, O ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste
15 et erit in die illa in oblivione eris o Tyre septuaginta annis sicut dies regis unius post septuaginta autem annos erit Tyro quasi canticum meretricis
15
In that day Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, like the days of one king. At the end of seventy years, it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the harlot:
16 sume citharam circui civitatem meretrix oblivioni tradita bene cane frequenta canticum ut memoria tui sit
16
"Take a harp, go about the city, O forgotten harlot! Make sweet melody, sing many songs, that you may be remembered."
17 et erit post septuaginta annos visitabit Dominus Tyrum et reducet eam ad mercedes suas et rursum fornicabitur cum universis regnis terrae super faciem terrae
17
At the end of seventy years, the LORD will visit Tyre, and she will return to her hire, and will play the harlot with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
18 et erunt negotiatio eius et mercedes eius sanctificatae Domino non condentur neque reponentur quia his qui habitaverint coram Domino erit negotiatio eius ut manducent in saturitatem et vestiantur usque ad vetustatem
18
Her merchandise and her hire will be dedicated to the LORD; it will not be stored or hoarded, but her merchandise will supply abundant food and fine clothing for those who dwell before the LORD.
