حِزْقِيال 27

١ 1 وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:

Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:

٢ 2 «وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، فَانْدُبْ صُورَ بِمَرْثَاةٍ،

'And thou, son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyre,

٣ 3 وَقُلْ لِصُورَ الْقَائِمَةِ عِنْدَ مَدَاخِلِ الْبَحْرِ، تَاجِرَةِ الشُّعُوبِ، الْقَاطِنَةِ فِي مُدُنِ السَّوَاحِلِ: يَا صُورُ أَنْتِ قُلْتِ: أَنَا كَامِلَةُ الْجَمَالِ.

and say unto Tyre, that dwelleth at the entry of the sea, that is the merchant of the peoples unto many isles: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Thou, O Tyre, hast said: I am of perfect beauty.

٤ 4 تُخُومُكِ فِي قَلْبِ الْبِحَارِ، وَبَنَّاؤُوكِ أَكْمَلُوا جَمَالَكِ،

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

٥ 5 صَنَعُوا كُلَّ أَلْوَاحِكِ مِنْ سَرْوِ سَنِيرَ، وَأَخَذُوا أَرْزاً مِنْ لُبْنَانَ لِيَعْمَلُوا لَكِ سَوَارِيَ.

Of cypress-trees from Senir have they fashioned all thy planks; they have taken cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.

٦ 6 مِنْ بَلُّوطِ بَاشَانَ صَنَعُوا مَجَاذِيفَكِ، وَطَعَّمُوا مَقَاعِدَكِ بِالْعَاجِ الْمُسْتَجْلَبِ مِنْ سَوَاحِلِ قُبْرُصَ.

Of the oaks of Bashan have they made thine oars; thy deck have they made of ivory inlaid in larch, from the isles of the Kittites.

٧ 7 نَصَبُوا شِرَاعَكِ مِنْ كَتَّانٍ مُطَرَّزٍ مِنْ مِصْرَ لِيَكُونَ لَكِ رَايَةً. وَكَانَتْ مِظَلَّتُكِ مِنْ قُمَاشٍ أَزْرَقَ وَأُرْجُوَانِيٍّ مِنْ جَزَائِرِ أَلِيشَةَ.

And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and lament over thee: who was there like Tyre, fortified in the midst of the sea?

Now that thou art broken by the seas in the depths of the waters, and thy merchandise and all thy company are fallen in the midst of thee,

٣٥ 35 فَاعْتَرَى الذُّعْرُ عَلَيْكِ كُلَّ سُكَّانِ الْمُدُنِ السَّاحِلِيَّةِ، وَاقْشَعَرَّ مُلُوكُهُمْ رُعْباً، وَاضْطَرَبَتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ.

All the inhabitants of the isles are appalled at thee, and their kings are horribly afraid, they are troubled in their countenance;

٣٦ 36 يَصْفِرُ تُجَّارُ الشُّعُوبِ دَهْشَةً عَلَيْكِ لِمَا حَلَّ بِكِ مِنْ مَصِيرٍ رَهِيبٍ، وَلَنْ يَبْقَى بَعْدُ مِنْكِ أَثَرٌ».

The merchants among the peoples hiss at thee; thou art become a terror, and never shalt be any more.'
