1 The word about Tyre. Let a cry of sorrow go up, O ships of Tarshish, because your strong place is made waste; on the way back from the land of Kittim the news is given to them.

2 Send out a cry of grief, you men of the sea-land, traders of Zidon, who go over the sea, whose representatives are on great waters;

3 Who get in the seed of Shihor, whose wealth is the trade of the nations.

4 Be shamed, O Zidon: for the sea, the strong place of the sea has said, I have not been with child, or given birth; I have not taken care of young men, or kept watch over the growth of virgins.

5 When the news comes to Egypt they will be bitterly pained at the fate of Tyre.

6 Go over to Tarshish; give cries of sorrow, O men of the sea-land.

7 Is this the town which was full of joy, whose start goes back to times long past, whose wanderings took her into far-off countries?

8 By whom was this purposed against Tyre, the crowning town, whose traders are chiefs, whose business men are honoured in the land?

9 It was the purpose of the Lord of armies to put pride to shame, to make sport of the glory of those who are honoured in the earth.

10 Let your land be worked with the plough, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no longer any harbour.

11 His hand is stretched out over the sea, the kingdoms are shaking: the Lord has given orders about Canaan, to make waste its strong places.

12 And he said, There is no more joy for you, O crushed virgin daughter of Zidon: up! go over to Kittim; even there you will have no rest.

13 ...

14 Let a cry of sorrow go up, O ships of Tarshish: because your strong place is made waste.

15 And it will be in that day that Tyre will go out of mind for seventy years, that is, the days of one king: after the end of seventy years it will be for Tyre as in the song of the loose woman.

16 Take an instrument of music, go about the town, O loose woman who has gone out from the memory of man; make sweet melody with songs, so that you may come back to men's minds.

17 And it will be after the end of seventy years, that the Lord will have mercy on Tyre, and she will go back to her trade, acting as a loose woman with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.

18 And her goods and her trade will be holy to the Lord: they will not be kept back or stored up; for her produce will be for those living in the Lord's land, to give them food for their needs, and fair clothing.

1 关于推罗的默示: 他施的船只啊, 要哀号! 因为推罗被毁灭了, 再没有房屋, 也不能再作港口, 这消息是他们从塞浦路斯地得来的。

2 沿海的居民, 就是靠航海致富的西顿商人哪! 要静默无言。

3 在大水之上, 西曷的谷物、尼罗河的庄稼, 都是推罗的收益, 推罗成了列国的市场。

4 西顿啊, 要惭愧! 因为大海说过, 就是海上的保障说过: "我没有受过产痛, 也没有生产; 我没有养大过男孩, 也没有抚养过童女。"

5 这消息传到埃及时, 埃及人就为推罗这消息非常伤痛。

6 你们要过到他施去; 沿海的居民哪, 要哀号!

7 这就是你们欢乐的城吗?它的起源溯自上古, 它的脚把其中的居民带到远方去寄居。

8 谁策划这事来攻击推罗呢?它本是赐人冠冕的城, 它的商人是王子, 它的商贾是世上的尊贵人。

9 这是万军之耶和华所定的旨意, 要凌辱那些因荣美而有狂傲, 使地上所有的尊贵人被藐视。

10 他施的居民哪! 要像尼罗河一般流遍你的地, 再没有限制了。

11 耶和华已经向海伸手, 使列国震动; 耶和华又发出一个关于迦南的吩咐, 就是要毁坏其中的保障。

12 他又说: "受压制的西顿居民哪, 你们不再有欢乐了! 起来, 过到塞浦路斯去! 就是在那里, 你们也得不到安息。"

13 看哪! 使推罗成为旷野, 走兽居住之处的, 是来自迦勒底地的人, 而不是亚述人; 他们要筑起攻城的高塔, 拆毁推罗的城堡, 使它成为废墟。

14 他施的船只啊, 要哀号! 因为你们的保障已被毁灭了。

15 到那日, 推罗必被忘记七十年, 正如一个王朝的年日; 七十年后, 推罗必像妓女所唱之歌:

16 "你被遗忘的妓女啊! 拿起琴来, 走遍全城吧。你要巧弹多唱, 使人再想起你! "

17 七十年后, 耶和华必眷顾推罗, 推罗就恢复繁荣, 可以与地上的万国交易。

18 它的货财和所得的利益要分别为圣归给耶和华, 必不会积聚或储藏起来; 因为它的货财必归给那些住在耶和华面前的人, 使他们吃得饱足, 穿得漂亮。
