- The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them.
- Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
- And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.
- Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins.
- As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.

- The oracle concerning Tyre Wail, O ships of Tarshish, For Tyre is destroyed, without house or harbor; It is reported to them from the land of Cyprus.
- Be silent, you inhabitants of the coastland, You merchants of Sidon; Your messengers crossed the sea
- And were on many waters. The grain of the Nile, the harvest of the River was her revenue; And she was the market of nations.
- Be ashamed, O Sidon; For the sea speaks, the stronghold of the sea, saying, "I have neither travailed nor given birth, I have neither brought up young men nor reared virgins."
- When the report reaches Egypt, They will be in anguish at the report of Tyre.
