1 The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying,

1 וַיְהִ֥י דְבַר־יְהוָ֖ה אֵלַ֥י לֵאמֹֽר׃

2 You, son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre;

2 וְאַתָּ֣ה בֶן־אָדָ֔ם שָׂ֥א עַל־צֹ֖ר קִינָֽה׃

3 and tell Tyre, you who dwell at the entry of the sea, who are the merchant of the peoples to many isles, thus says the Lord Yahweh: You, Tyre, have said, I am perfect in beauty.

3 וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ לְצֹ֗ור הַיֹּשְׁבֹתֵי הַיֹּשֶׁ֙בֶת֙ עַל־מְבֹואֹ֣ת יָ֔ם רֹכֶ֙לֶת֙ הָֽעַמִּ֔ים אֶל־אִיִּ֖ים רַבִּ֑ים כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה צֹ֕ור אַ֣תְּ אָמַ֔רְתְּ אֲנִ֖י כְּלִ֥ילַת יֹֽפִי׃

4 Your borders are in the heart of the seas; your builders have perfected your beauty.

36 The merchants among the peoples hiss at you; you are become a terror, and you shall nevermore have any being.

36 סֹֽחֲרִים֙ בָּ֣עַמִּ֔ים שָׁרְק֖וּ עָלָ֑יִךְ בַּלָּהֹ֣ות הָיִ֔ית וְאֵינֵ֖ךְ עַד־עֹולָֽם׃
