NEW AMERICAN BIBLENOVA VULGATA
1 Oracle on Tyre: Wail, O ships of Tarshish, for your port is destroyed; From the land of the Kittim the news reaches them.1 Oraculum Tyri.
Ululate, naves Tharsis,
quia vastatum est refugium vestrum;
cum redirent de terra Cetthim, revelatum est eis.
2 Silence! you who dwell on the coast, you merchants of Sidon, Whose messengers crossed the sea2 Obstupescite, qui habitatis in insula;
negotiatores Sidonis
transfretantes mare repleverunt te.
3 over the deep waters. The grain of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue, and she the merchant among nations.3 In aquis multis semen Nili,
messis fluminis fruges eius;
et facta est negotiatio gentium.
4 Shame, O Sidon, fortress on the sea, for the sea has spoken: "I have not been in labor, nor given birth, nor raised young men, nor reared virgins."4 Erubesce, Sidon, ait enim mare,
fortitudo maris, dicens:
“ Non parturivi et non peperi;
et non enutrivi iuvenes
nec virgines educavi ”.
5 When it is heard in Egypt they shall be in anguish at the news of Tyre.5 Cum auditum fuerit in Aegypto,
dolebunt cum audierint de Tyro.
6 Pass over to Tarshish, wailing, you who dwell on the coast!6 Transite ad Tharsis,
ululate, qui habitatis in insula.
7 Is this your wanton city, whose origin is from old, Whose feet have taken her to dwell in distant lands?7 Estne vestra haec, quae gloriabatur?
A diebus pristinis antiquitas eius.
Ducebant eam pedes sui longe
ad peregrinandum.
8 Who has planned such a thing against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, Whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the earth's honored men?8 Quis cogitavit hoc
super Tyrum quondam coronatam,
cuius negotiatores principes,
institores eius incliti terrae?
9 The LORD of hosts has planned it, to disgrace all pride of majesty, to degrade all the earth's honored men.9 Dominus exercituum cogitavit hoc,
ut detraheret superbiam omnis gloriae
et viles faceret universos inclitos terrae.
10 Cross to your own land, O ship of Tarshish; the harbor is no more.10 Excole terram tuam sicut litus Nili,
filia Tharsis, iam non est portus.
11 His hand he stretches out over the sea, he shakes kingdoms; The LORD has ordered the destruction of Canaan's strongholds.11 Manum suam extendit super mare,
conturbavit regna.
Dominus mandavit adversus Chanaan,
ut contereret munimenta eius,
12 You shall exult no more, he says, you who are now oppressed, virgin daughter Sidon. Arise, pass over to the Kittim, even there you shall find no rest.12 et dixit: “ Non adicies ultra ut glorieris,
violata virgo filia Sidonis;
in Cetthim consurgens transfreta:
ibi quoque non erit requies tibi ”.
13 (This people is the land of the Chaldeans, not Assyria.) She whom the impious founded, setting up towers for her, Has had her castles destroyed, and has been turned into a ruin.13 Ecce terra Chaldaeorum:
talis populus non fuit;
Assyria fundavit eam pro feris.
Erexerunt turres suas;
suffoderunt domos eius,
posuerunt eam in ruinam.
14 Lament, O ships of Tarshish, for your haven is destroyed.14 Ululate, naves Tharsis,
quia devastatum est praesidium vestrum.
15 On that day, Tyre shall be forgotten for seventy years. With the days of another king, at the end of seventy years, it shall be for Tyre as in the song about the harlot:15 Et erit in die illa: in oblivione erit Tyrus septuaginta annis, sicut diesregis unius. Post septuaginta autem annos erit Tyro iuxta canticum meretricis:
16 Take a harp, go about the city, O forgotten harlot; Pluck the strings skillfully, sing many songs, that they may remember you.16 “ Sume citharam, circui civitatem,
meretrix oblivioni tradita;
bene cane, frequenta canticum,
ut memoria tui sit ”.
17 At the end of the seventy years the LORD shall visit Tyre. She shall return to her hire and deal with all the world's kingdoms on the face of the earth.17 Et erit: post septuaginta annos visitabit Dominus Tyrum, et redibit admercedes suas et rursum fornicabitur cum universis regnis terrae super faciemterrae.
18 But her merchandise and her hire shall be sacred to the LORD. It shall not be stored up or laid away, but from her merchandise those who dwell before the LORD shall eat their fill and clothe themselves in choice attire.18 Et erunt negotiatio eius et merces eius sanctificatae Domino; noncondentur neque reponentur, quia his, qui habitaverint coram Domino, eritnegotiatio eius, ut manducent in saturitate et vestiantur splendide.
