以赛亚书23:8~18
8 泰尔本是赐冠冕的。
她的商家是王子;
她的买卖人是世上的尊贵人。
遭遇如此是谁定的呢?
9 是万军之耶/和/华所定的!
为要污辱一切高傲的荣耀,
使地上一切的尊贵人被藐视。
10 他施的民哪,
可以流行你的地,好像尼罗河;
不再有腰带拘紧你。
11 耶/和/华已经向海伸手,
震动列国。
至于迦南,
他已经吩咐拆毁其中的保障。
12 他又说:受欺压西顿的居民哪,
你必不得再欢乐。
起来!过到基提去;
就是在那里也不得安歇。
( 13 看哪,迦勒底人之地向来没有这民,这国是亚述人为住旷野的人所立的。现在他们建筑戍楼,拆毁泰尔的宫殿,使她成为荒凉。)
14 他施的船只都要哀号,
因为你们的保障变为荒场。
15 到那时,泰尔必被忘记七十年,照着一王的年日。七十年后,泰尔的景况必像妓女所唱的歌:
16 你这被忘记的妓女啊,
拿琴周流城内,
巧弹多唱,使人再想念你。
17 七十年后,耶/和/华必眷顾泰尔,她就仍得利息,与地上的万国交易。
18 她的货财和利息要归耶/和/华为圣,必不积攒存留;因为她的货财必为住在耶/和/华面前的人所得,使他们吃饱,穿耐久的衣服。
8 Who planned this against Tyre,
the bestower of crowns,
whose merchants are princes,
whose traders are renowned in the earth?
9 The Lord Almighty planned it,
to bring down her pride in all her splendor
and to humble all who are renowned on the earth.
10 Till your land as they do along the Nile,
Daughter Tarshish,
for you no longer have a harbor.
11 The Lord has stretched out his hand over the sea
and made its kingdoms tremble.
He has given an order concerning Phoenicia
that her fortresses be destroyed.
12 He said, “No more of your reveling,
Virgin Daughter Sidon, now crushed!
“Up, cross over to Cyprus;
even there you will find no rest.”
13 Look at the land of the Babylonians,
this people that is now of no account!
The Assyrians have made it
a place for desert creatures;
they raised up their siege towers,
they stripped its fortresses bare
and turned it into a ruin.
14 Wail, you ships of Tarshish;
your fortress is destroyed!
15 At that time Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, the span of a king’s life. But at the end of these seventy years, it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute:
16 “Take up a harp, walk through the city,
you forgotten prostitute;
play the harp well, sing many a song,
so that you will be remembered.”
17 At the end of seventy years, the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will return to her lucrative prostitution and will ply her trade with all the kingdoms on the face of the earth.
18 Yet her profit and her earnings will be set apart for the Lord; they will not be stored up or hoarded. Her profits will go to those who live before the Lord, for abundant food and fine clothes.
