Isaia 23

NOVA VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Oraculum Tyri. Ululate, naves Tharsis, quia vastatum est refugium vestrum; cum redirent de terra Cetthim, revelatum est eis.	1 Oracle on Tyre: Wail, O ships of Tarshish, for your port is destroyed; From the land of the Kittim the news reaches them.
2 Obstupescite, qui habitatis in insula; negotiatores Sidonis transfretantes mare repleverunt te.	2 Silence! you who dwell on the coast, you merchants of Sidon, Whose messengers crossed the sea
3 In aquis multis semen Nili, messis fluminis fruges eius; et facta est negotiatio gentium.	3 over the deep waters. The grain of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue, and she the merchant among nations.
4 Erubesce, Sidon, ait enim mare, fortitudo maris, dicens: “ Non parturivi et non peperi; et non enutrivi iuvenes nec virgines educavi ”.	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."
5 Cum auditum fuerit in Aegypto, dolebunt cum audierint de Tyro.	5 When it is heard in Egypt they shall be in anguish at the news of Tyre.
6 Transite ad Tharsis, ululate, qui habitatis in insula.	6 Pass over to Tarshish, wailing, you who dwell on the coast!
7 Estne vestra haec, quae gloriabatur? A diebus pristinis antiquitas eius. Ducebant eam pedes sui longe ad peregrinandum.	7 Is this your wanton city, whose origin is from old, Whose feet have taken her to dwell in distant lands?
8 Quis cogitavit hoc super Tyrum quondam coronatam, cuius negotiatores principes, institores eius incliti terrae?	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?
9 Dominus exercituum cogitavit hoc, ut detraheret superbiam omnis gloriae et viles faceret universos inclitos terrae.	9 The LORD of hosts has planned it, to disgrace all pride of majesty, to degrade all the earth's honored men.
10 Excole terram tuam sicut litus Nili, filia Tharsis, iam non est portus.	10 Cross to your own land, O ship of Tarshish; the harbor is no more.
11 Manum suam extendit super mare, conturbavit regna. Dominus mandavit adversus Chanaan, ut contereret munimenta eius,	11 His hand he stretches out over the sea, he shakes kingdoms; The LORD has ordered the destruction of Canaan's strongholds.
12 et dixit: “ Non adicies ultra ut glorieris, violata virgo filia Sidonis; in Cetthim consurgens transfreta: ibi quoque non erit requies tibi ”.	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.
13 Ecce terra Chaldaeorum: talis populus non fuit; Assyria fundavit eam pro feris. Erexerunt turres suas; suffoderunt domos eius, posuerunt eam in ruinam.	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.
14 Ululate, naves Tharsis, quia devastatum est praesidium vestrum.	14 Lament, O ships of Tarshish, for your haven is destroyed.
15 Et erit in die illa: in oblivione erit Tyrus septuaginta annis, sicut diesregis unius. Post septuaginta autem annos erit Tyro iuxta canticum meretricis:	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:
16 “ Sume citharam, circui civitatem, meretrix oblivioni tradita; bene cane, frequenta canticum, ut memoria tui sit ”.	16 Take a harp, go about the city, O forgotten harlot; Pluck the strings skillfully, sing many songs, that they may remember you.
17 Et erit: post septuaginta annos visitabit Dominus Tyrum, et redibit admercedes suas et rursum fornicabitur cum universis regnis terrae super faciemterrae.	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.
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.	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.
