1וַיְהִ֥י דְבַר־ יְהוָ֖ה אֵלַ֥י לֵאמֹֽר׃

2"You, son of man, sing a lament for Tyre.

2וְאַתָּ֣ה בֶן־ אָדָ֔ם שָׂ֥א עַל־ צֹ֖ר קִינָֽה׃

3Say to Tyre, who sits at the entrance of the sea, merchant to the peoples on many coasts, 'This is what the sovereign LORD says: "'O Tyre, you have said, "I am perfectly beautiful."

3וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ לְצ֗וֹר [הישבתי] (הַיֹּשֶׁ֙בֶת֙) עַל־ מְבוֹאֹ֣ת יָ֔ם רֹכֶ֙לֶת֙ הָֽעַמִּ֔ים אֶל־ אִיִּ֖ים רַבִּ֑ים כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה צ֕וֹר אַ֣תְּ אָמַ֔רְתְּ אֲנִ֖י כְּלִ֥ילַת יֹֽפִי׃

4Your borders are in the heart of the seas; your builders have perfected your beauty.

5בְּרוֹשִׁ֤ים מִשְּׂנִיר֙ בָּ֣נוּ לָ֔ךְ אֵ֖ת כָּל־ לֻֽחֹתָ֑יִם אֶ֤רֶז מִלְּבָנוֹן֙ לָקָ֔חוּ לַעֲשׂ֥וֹת תֹּ֖רֶן עָלָֽיִךְ׃

6They made your oars from oaks of Bashan; they made your deck with cypresses from the Kittean isles.

6אַלּוֹנִים֙ מִבָּ֔שָׁן עָשׂ֖וּ מִשּׁוֹטָ֑יִךְ קַרְשֵׁ֤ךְ עָֽשׂוּ־ שֵׁן֙ בַּת־ אֲשֻׁרִ֔ים מֵאִיֵּ֖י [כתים] (כִּתִּיִּֽים׃)

32As they wail they will lament over you, chanting: "Who was like Tyre, like a tower in the midst of the sea?"

32וְנָשְׂא֨וּ אֵלַ֤יִךְ בְּנִיהֶם֙ קִינָ֔ה וְקוֹנְנ֖וּ עָלָ֑יִךְ מִ֣י כְצ֔וֹר כְּדֻמָ֖ה בְּת֥וֹךְ הַיָּֽם׃

33When your products went out from the seas, you satisfied many peoples; with the abundance of your wealth and merchandise you enriched the kings of the earth.

33בְּצֵ֤את עִזְבוֹנַ֙יִךְ֙ מִיַּמִּ֔ים הִשְׂבַּ֖עַתְּ עַמִּ֣ים רַבִּ֑ים בְּרֹ֤ב הוֹנַ֙יִךְ֙ וּמַ֣עֲרָבַ֔יִךְ הֶעֱשַׁ֖רְתְּ מַלְכֵי־ אָֽרֶץ׃

34Now you are wrecked by the seas, in the depths of the waters; your merchandise and all your company have sunk along with you.

34עֵ֛ת נִשְׁבֶּ֥רֶת מִיַּמִּ֖ים בְּמַֽעֲמַקֵּי־ מָ֑יִם מַעֲרָבֵ֥ךְ וְכָל־ קְהָלֵ֖ךְ בְּתוֹכֵ֥ךְ נָפָֽלוּ׃

35All the inhabitants of the coastlands are shocked at you, and their kings are horribly afraid--their faces are troubled.

35כֹּ֚ל יֹשְׁבֵ֣י הָאִיִּ֔ים שָׁמְמ֖וּ עָלָ֑יִךְ וּמַלְכֵיהֶם֙ שָׂ֣עֲרוּ שַׂ֔עַר רָעֲמ֖וּ פָּנִֽים׃

36The traders among the peoples hiss at you; you have become a horror, and will be no more.'"

36סֹֽחֲרִים֙ בָּ֣עַמִּ֔ים שָׁרְק֖וּ עָלָ֑יִךְ בַּלָּה֣וֹת הָיִ֔ית וְאֵינֵ֖ךְ עַד־ עוֹלָֽם׃ ס
