以賽亞書 23
1 有關提洛的神諭：你們哀號罷！塔爾史士的船隻！因為你們的保壘已遭破壞。由基廷地歸來的，他們得到了這消息。
The burden of Tyrus. Howle, yee shippes of Tarshish: for it is destroied, so that there is none house: none shall come from the lande of Chittim: it is reueiled vnto them.
2 海濱的居民，靜默罷！漆冬的商賈曾充實了你。
Be still, yee that dwell in the yles: the marchantes of Zidon, and such as passe ouer the sea, haue replenished thee.
3 在大水之上運來的，是史曷爾的穀物；尼羅河的收穫，是她的財富；她成了萬民的商場。
The seede of Nilus growing by the abundance of waters, and the haruest of the riuer was her reuenues, and she was a marte of the nations.
4 漆冬！羞慚罷！因為海說過：【即海中的保壘說過：】「我沒有分娩過，也沒有生產過；沒有撫養過青年，也沒有養育過處女。」
Be ashamed, thou Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, euen the strength of the sea, saying, I haue not trauailed, nor brought forth children, neither nourished yong men, nor brought vp virgins.
5 這風聲一傳到了埃及，大家都為了提洛的消息而戰慄。
When the fame commeth to the Egyptians, they shall be sorie, concerning the rumour of Tyrus.
6 你門過海到塔爾史士去罷！海濱的居民你們哀號罷！
Goe you ouer to Tarshish: howle, yee that dwell in the yles.
7 這就是你們所誇耀的城嗎﹖她本起源於上古，她的雙腳曾將她帶至遠方寄居。
Is not this that your glorious citie? her antiquitie is of ancient daies: her owne feete shall leade her afarre off to be a soiourner.
8 是誰策劃了這事，來反對加過冕的提洛﹖她得商賈本來都是王侯，商販本來都是地上的顯要。
Who hath decreed this against Tyrus (that crowneth men) whose marchantes are princes? whose chapmen are the nobles of the worlde?
9 是萬軍的上主策劃了這事，為打擊她一切自矜的狂傲，侮辱地上所有的顯要。
The Lord of hostes hath decreed this, to staine the pride of all glorie, and to bring to contempt all them that be glorious in the earth.
10 塔爾史士女兒！耕種你的地罷！海港也不在了！
Passe through thy lande like a flood to the daughter of Tarshish: there is no more strength.
11 上主的手已伸在海上，使萬國戰慄震驚；上主對客納罕已決定，要摧毀她的要塞。
He stretched out his hand vpon the sea: he shooke the kingdomes: the Lord hath giuen a commandement concerning the place of marchandise, to destroy the power thereof.
12 他說過：「漆冬女兒！遭虐待的處女，你不要再歡樂！起來，往基廷去！在那裏你也得不到安寧！」
And he saide, Thou shalt no more reioyce when thou art oppressed: O virgin daughter of Zidon: rise vp, goe ouer vnto Chittim: yet there thou shalt haue no rest.
13 看基廷的地域！【她已不成為民族，亞述已將她委棄予野獸；】人設立了高塔，毀壞了她的宮殿，使她成了一片廢 墟。
Behold the lande of the Caldeans: this was no people: Asshur founded it by the inhabitantes of the wildernesse: they set vp the towers thereof: they raised the palaces thereof and hee brought it to ruine.
14 塔爾史士的船隻！ 你們哀號罷！ 因為你們的保壘已遭破壞！
Howle yee shippes of Tarshish, for your strength is destroyed.
15 到那天，提洛將被遺忘七十年之久，有如一位君王的歲月。過了七十年，提洛要像妓女歌曲中所唱的：「
And in that day shall Tyrus bee forgotten seuentie yeeres, (according to the yeeres of one King) at the ende of seuentie yeeres shall Tyrus sing as an harlot.
16 被遺忘的妓女！拿琴遊城罷﹖巧彈多唱罷！好使人再記起你來！」
Take an harpe and go about the citie: (thou harlot thou hast beene forgotten) make sweete melodie, sing moe songes that thou maiest be remembred.
17 過了七十年，上主要眷顧提洛，她要再接受纏頭，與地面世上各國交易。
And at the ende of seuentie yeres shall the Lord visite Tyrus, and shee shall returne to her wages, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdomes of the earth, that are in the world.
18 她的贏利和她的進項將祝聖與上主，必不再貯藏積蓄起來，因為她的贏利將歸於那些在上主面前度日的人，使他們吃得飽，穿得體面。
Yet her occupying and her wages shall bee holy vnto the Lord: it shall not be laied vp nor kept in store, but her marchandise shalbe for them that dwell before the Lord, to eate sufficiently, and to haue durable clothing.
