Isaiah 23

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 Chittim it is revealed to them.

onus Tyri ululate naves maris quia vastata est domus unde venire consueverant de terra Cetthim revelatum est eis

Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.

tacete qui habitatis in insula negotiatio Sidonis transfretantes mare repleverunt te

And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.

in aquis multis semen Nili messis fluminis fruges eius et facta est negotiatio gentium

Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins.

erubesce Sidon ait enim mare fortitudo maris dicens non parturivi et non peperi et non enutrivi iuvenes nec ad incrementum perduxi virgines

As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.

cum auditum fuerit in Aegypto dolebunt cum audierint de Tyro

Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.

transite maria ululate qui habitatis in insula

Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.

numquid non haec vestra est quae gloriabatur a diebus pristinis in antiquitate sua ducent eam pedes sui longe ad peregrinandum

Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth?

quis cogitavit hoc super Tyrum quondam coronatam cuius negotiatores principes institores eius incliti terrae

The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.

Dominus exercituum cogitavit hoc ut detraheret superbiam omnis gloriae et ad ignominiam deduceret universos inclitos terrae

Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish: there is no more strength.

transi terram tuam quasi flumen filia maris non est cingulum ultra tibi

He stretched out his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms: the LORD hath given a commandment against the merchant city, to destroy the strong holds thereof.

manum suam extendit super mare conturbavit regna Dominus mandavit adversum Chanaan ut contereret fortes eius

And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there also shalt thou have no rest.

et dixit non adicies ultra ut glorieris calumniam sustinens virgo filia Sidonis in Cetthim consurgens transfreta ibi quoque non erit requies tibi

Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin.

ecce terra Chaldeorum talis populus non fuit Assur fundavit eam in captivitatem transduxerunt robustos eius suffoderunt domos eius posuerunt eam in ruinam

Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.

ululate naves maris quia devastata est fortitudo vestra

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 shall Tyre sing as an harlot.

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

Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.

sume citharam circui civitatem meretrix oblivioni tradita bene cane frequenta canticum ut memoria tui sit

And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.

et erit post septuaginta annos visitabit Dominus Tyrum et reducet eam ad mercedes suas et rursum fornicabitur cum universis regnis terrae super faciem terrae

And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the LORD, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.

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
