人子,你唱哀歌憑弔提洛,
3 And you shall say to Tyre, which lives at the entrance to the sea, which is the marketplace of the peoples for the many islands: Thus says the Lord God: O Tyre, you have said, ‘I am of perfect beauty,
向位於海口,同許多島嶼及人民通商的提洛說:吾主上主這樣說:提洛,你曾說過:我是一隻完美華麗的船;
4 for I have been positioned at the heart of the sea!’ Your neighbors, who built you, have filled up your beauty.
