CHAP. XXIII.
1 The miserable ouerthrow of Tyre. 17 Their
vnhappie returne.
1
The burden of Tyre. Howle
yee ships of Tarshish, for
it is laide waste, so that
there is no house, no entring
in: from the land of
Chittim it is reuealed to them.
2
Be note still, yee inhabitants of the
yle, thou whom the merchants of Zidon,
that passe ouer the sea, haue replenished.
3
And by great waters the seede of
Sihor, the haruest of the riuer is her reuenew,
and she is a mart of nations.
4
Be thou ashamed, O Zidon; for
the sea hath spoken, euen the strength of
the sea, saying; I trauell not, nor bring
foorth children, neither doe I nourish
vp yong men, nor bring vp virgines.
5
As at the report concerning Egypt,
so shal they be sorely pained at the
report of Tyre.
6
Passe ye ouer to Tarshish, howle
ye inhabitants of the yle.
7
Is this your ioyous citie, whose
antiquitie is of ancient dayes? her
owne feete shall cary her note afarre off to
soiourne.
8
Who hath taken this counsell against
Tyre the crowning citie, whose
-- --
Against Tyre.
merchants are princes, whose traffiquers
are the honourable of the earth?
9
The Lord of hostes hath purposed
it, note to staine the pride of all glory,
and to bring into contempt all the honorable
of the earth.
10
Passe through thy land as a riuer
O daughter of Tarshish: there is no
more note strength.
11
He stretched out his hand ouer the
sea, hee shooke the kingdomes: the
Lord hath giuen a commandement
note against the merchant citie, to destroy
the note strong holdes thereof.
12
And he said, Thou shalt no more
reioice, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter
of Zidon: arise, passe ouer to Chittim,
there also shalt thou haue no rest.
13
Behold, the land of the Caldeans,
this people was not till the Assyrian
founded it for them that dwel in the wildernesse:
they set vp the towers thereof,
they raised vp the palaces thereof,
and he brought it to ruine.
14
Howle ye ships of Tarshish: for
your strength is laid waste.
15
And it shall come to passe in that
day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seuentie
yeeres according to the dayes of one
king: after the end of seuentie yeeres
note shall Tyre sing as an harlot.
16
Take an harpe, goe about the city
thou harlot, that hast beene forgotten,
make sweet melody, sing many songs,
that thou mayest be remembred.
17
¶ And it shall come to passe after
the ende of seuentie yeeres, that the
Lord will visite Tyre, and shee shall
turne to her hire, and shall commit fornication
with all the kingdomes of the
world vpon the face of the earth.
18
And her merchandize and her hire
shall be holinesse to the Lord: it shall
not be treasured nor laid vp: for her
merchandize shalbe for them that dwell
before the Lord, to eate sufficiently,
and for note durable clothing.
