1 و َأتَتْ إلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ اللهِ:

The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,

2 « يا إنْسانُ، أنْشِدْ أُغنِيَّةَ حُزنٍ عَلَى مَدِينَةِ صُورَ.

Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;

3 ق ُلْ لِصُورَ الّتِي تَجلِسُ عِندَ بَوّاباتِ البَحرِ كَتاجِرَةٍ للِمُدُنِ السّاحِلِيَّةِ. هَذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: «‹يا صُورُ، أنتِ قُلْتِ: أنا أجمَلُ مَدِينَةٍ.

and say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord God; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of perfect beauty.

4 ح ُدودُكِ تَمتَدُّ عَبرَ البَحرِ، وَبَنّاؤُوكِ جَعَلُوا جَمالَكِ كامِلاً.

Thy borders are in the midst of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.

5 ا ستَخدَمَ بَنّاؤُوكِ خَشَبَ السَّروِ الَّذِي مِنْ جَبَلِ سَنِيرَ لِصُنعِ ألواحِكِ، وَأخَذُوا مِنْ أرْزِ لُبنانَ لِصُنعِ سارِيَتِكِ.

They have made all thy ship boards of fir trees of Senir: they have taken cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.

6 ا سْتَخْدَمُوا بَلُّوطَ باشانَ لِصُنعِ مَجاذِيفَ، وَصَنَعُوا حُجْرَةَ قِيادَتِكَ مِنْ سَرْوٍ مِنْ قُبرُصَ، وَزَيَّنُوها بِالعاجِ.

Of the oaks of Bashan have they made thine oars; the company of the Ashurites have made thy benches of ivory, brought out of the isles of Chittim.

7 ا ستَخْدَمُوا كِتاناً مُطَرَّزاً مَصرِيّاً لِصُنعِ أشرِعَتِكِ، وَصَنَعُوا مِظَلَّتَكِ مِنْ أقمِشَةٍ زَرقاءَ وَقُرمُزِيَّةٍ مِنْ شَواطِئِ ألِيشَةَ.

Fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was that which thou spreadest forth to be thy sail; blue and purple from the isles of Elishah was that which covered thee.

8 ك انَ سُكّانُ صِيدُونَ وَإرْوادَ مَلّاحِيكِ، وَكانَ رِجالُكِ الماهِرِينَ يا صُورُ، بَحّارَتَكِ،

The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy mariners: thy wise men, O Tyrus, that were in thee, were thy pilots.

9 ا لَّذِينَ يَسُدُّونَ ثَغَراتِكِ حِرَفِيُّونَ مَهَرَةٌ مِنْ جُبَيلَ. وَكُلُّ سُفُنِ البَحرِ وَبَحّارُوها كانُوا فِيكِ يُدِيرُونَ أعمالَهُمْ وَيَبِيعُونَ بَضائِعَكِ.

Thy riches, and thy fairs, thy merchandise, thy mariners, and thy pilots, thy calkers, and the occupiers of thy merchandise, and all thy men of war, that are in thee, and in all thy company which is in the midst of thee, shall fall into the midst of the seas in the day of thy ruin.

28 و َحِينَ يَصرُخُ مَلّاحُوكِ فِي البَحرِ سَتَرتَجِفُ قُراكَ الَّتِي عَلَى اليابِسَةِ.

And all that handle the oar, the mariners, and all the pilots of the sea, shall come down from their ships, they shall stand upon the land;

And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and lament over thee, saying, What city is like Tyrus, like the destroyed in the midst of the sea?

33 ح ِينَ كانَتْ سُفُنُكِ التِّجارِيَّةُ تَسِيرُ فِي البَحرِ، كُنتِ تُشبِعِينَ شُعُوباً كَثِيرةً. كَثرَةُ بَضائِعِكِ أغنَتْ مُلُوكاً فِي كُلِّ الأرْضِ.

When thy wares went forth out of the seas, thou filledst many people; thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the multitude of thy riches and of thy merchandise.

34 ل َكِنْ حِينَ تَتَحَطَّمِينَ فِي عُمقِ البِحارِ، فَإنَّ كُلَّ بَضائِعِكِ وَالمُسافِرِينَ عَلَيها سَيَهلَكُونَ.

In the time when thou shalt be broken by the seas in the depths of the waters thy merchandise and all thy company in the midst of thee shall fall.

All the inhabitants of the isles shall be astonished at thee, and their kings shall be sore afraid, they shall be troubled in their countenance.

36 ي َتَنَهَّدُ تُجّارُكِ وَسَطَ الأُمَمِ عَلَيكِ. صِرتِ دَماراً رَهِيباً، وَلَنْ تَعُودِي إلَى ما كُنتِ عَلَيهِ أبَداً.›»

The merchants among the people shall hiss at thee; thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt be any more.
