Chap. XXIII.
The destruction of Tyrus by the Chaldees, 15. and reparation therof after
seuentie yeares.
1 The burden of Tyre. Howle ye shippes of the sea, because
the house is destroyed, from whence they were
wont to come: from the land of Cethim it is reueled to them. note
2 Hold your peace ye that dwel in note the ile: the trafickers of
Sidon passing ouer the sea, haue replenished thee.
3 The seede
of Nilus in manie waters, the haruest of the riuer was her
fruites: & she was made the trafike of the nations.
4 Be ashamed
Sidon, for the sea sayth, the strength of the sea, saying: I
haue not trauailed, and I haue not brought forth, and I haue
not nourished yong men, nor brought virgins to their growth.
5 When it shal be heard in Ægypt, they wil be sorie when
they shal heare of Tyre:
6 Passe ouer the seas, howle ye that
dwel in the ile,
7 Is not this your citie, which gloried from
ancient dayes in her antiquitie? her feete shal leade her afarre
to seiourne.
8 Who hath thought this against Tyre, that was
some time crowned, whose merchants were princes, her
chapmen the nobles of the earth?
9 The Lord of hostes hath
thought it, that he might plucke downe the pride of al glorie,
and bring al the glorious of the earth to ignominie.
10 Passe
thy land as a riuer, ô daughter of the sea, thou hast a girdle no
more.
11 He hath stretched forth his hand vpon the sea, he
hath trubled kingdomes: Our Lord hath geuen commandment
against Chanaan, to destroy the strong thereof,
12 and he
said: Thou shalt adde no more to glorie, ô Virgin daughter of
Sidon susteyning calumnie: rising vp saile ouer to Cethim,
there also thou shalt haue no rest.
13 Behold the land of the
Chaldees was not such a people, Assur founded it: they led
away the strong therof into captiuitie, they vndermined the
houses therof, they brought it to ruine.
14 Howle ye shippes
of the sea, because your strength is destroyed.
15 And it shal
be in that day: thou shalt be in obliuion ô Tyre, note seuentie
-- --
yeares, as the daies of one king: but after seuentie yeares, there
shal be to Tyre as it were the song of an harlot.
16 Take an
harpe, goe about the citie thou harlot forgotten: sing wel,
multiplie song, that there may be remembrance of thee.
17 And it shal be after seuentie yeares: our Lord wil visite Tyre,
and wil bring her backe againe to her merchandise: and she
shal fornicate againe with al the kingdoms of the earth, vpon
the face of the earth.
18 And the martes, and rewards shal be
sanctified to our Lord: they shal not be kept in store, nor layd
vp: because her merchandise shal be for them, that shal dwel
before our Lord, that they may eate vnto satietie, and be clothed
vnto continuance.
