以西結書 27:1-36

為泰爾唱哀歌

1耶和華對我說: 2「人子啊,你要為泰爾唱哀歌, 3告訴位於海口、跟沿海各民族通商的泰爾,主耶和華這樣說,

泰爾啊,

你曾誇耀自己完美無瑕。

4你的勢力在大海上,

你的建造者把你造得完美無瑕。

5他們用示尼珥的松木做你的船板,

黎巴嫩的香柏木做桅杆,

6巴珊的橡木做你的槳,

把象牙鑲嵌在基提沿岸的黃楊木上做甲板,

7埃及來的繡花細麻布做你的帆,

成為你的旗號,

伊利沙島來的藍布和紫布做船篷。

8西頓亞發的居民是你的船夫,

你的智者在船上為你掌舵。

9迦巴勒的老手和智者在船上為你修補船篷,

所有海洋的船隻和水手都來與你做生意。

10「『你軍隊中的戰士有波斯人、路德人、人,他們在你的牆上掛起盾牌和頭盔,展示你的光彩。 11亞發人和你的軍隊都守衛在你的城牆上,歌瑪底人把守你的城樓,他們都在牆上掛滿盾牌,使你完美無瑕。

12「『他施人因你有豐富的貨物,就拿銀、鐵、錫、鉛來跟你交易。 13雅完人、土巴人、米設人也跟你通商,用奴隸和銅器來換取你的貨物。 14陀迦瑪人用馬匹、戰馬和騾子來跟你交易。 15底但人也是你的客商,你的市場遠及沿海一帶,他們拿象牙、烏木來跟你交易。 16因為你的貨物豐富,亞蘭人也成了你的客戶,他們用綠寶石、紫布、刺繡、細麻布、珊瑚和紅寶石與你交換貨物。 17猶大以色列也是你的客商,他們用米匿的麥、餅、蜜、油和香料與你交換貨物。 18大馬士革見你的貨物豐富,就用黑本的酒和沙哈的羊毛來跟你交易。 19烏薩來的威但人和雅完人用鐵、肉桂、菖蒲與你交換貨物。 20底但人用馬鞍墊來跟你交易。 21阿拉伯人和基達的所有首領都來做你的客商,他們用羊羔、綿羊和山羊來跟你交易。 22示巴拉瑪的商人用各類上等香料、寶石和黃金交換你的貨物。 23哈蘭幹尼伊甸示巴亞述基抹的商人都來跟你交易, 24他們把華麗衣服、藍布、刺繡和彩色地毯捆紮結實,拿來跟你交易。

25他施的船隻替你運貨,

你在海上載滿沉甸甸的貨物。

26船夫把你搖到汪洋之中,

但東風要把你擊碎在海中。

27你的財富、貨物、商品、

水手、舵手、縫匠、客商、

戰士和人民在你傾覆的日子都要沉到深海裡。

28你舵手的哀號聲必震動海岸,

29所有的船夫、水手、舵手都必棄船登岸,

30為你放聲痛哭,

把塵埃撒在頭上,

在灰中打滾,

31又為你剃頭披麻,

悲痛哀傷。

32他們在痛哭中為你唱起哀歌,

哀悼你說,

有哪一座城像泰爾一樣在深海中銷聲匿跡呢?

33你的貨物由海上運出,

滿足了許多國家;

你的資財和貨物使地上的君王富裕。

34然而,如今你在汪洋中被海浪擊碎,

你的貨物和人民都一同沉沒了。

35沿海的居民因你而驚駭,

君王都嚇得面容失色。

36各國商人都嗤笑你,

你那可怕的末日來臨了,

你將永遠不復存在。』」

Ezekiel 27:1-36

A lament over Tyre

1The word of the Lord came to me: 2‘Son of man, take up a lament concerning Tyre. 3Say to Tyre, situated at the gateway to the sea, merchant of peoples on many coasts, “This is what the Sovereign Lord says:

‘ “You say, Tyre,

‘I am perfect in beauty.’

4Your domain was on the high seas;

your builders brought your beauty to perfection.

5They made all your timbers

of juniper from Senir27:5 That is, Mount Hermon;

they took a cedar from Lebanon

to make a mast for you.

6Of oaks from Bashan

they made your oars;

of cypress wood27:6 Targum; the Masoretic Text has a different division of the consonants. from the coasts of Cyprus

they made your deck, adorned with ivory.

7Fine embroidered linen from Egypt was your sail

and served as your banner;

your awnings were of blue and purple

from the coasts of Elishah.

8Men of Sidon and Arvad were your oarsmen;

your skilled men, Tyre, were aboard as your sailors.

9Veteran craftsmen of Byblos were on board

as shipwrights to caulk your seams.

All the ships of the sea and their sailors

came alongside to trade for your wares.

10‘ “Men of Persia, Lydia and Put

served as soldiers in your army.

They hung their shields and helmets on your walls,

bringing you splendour.

11Men of Arvad and Helek

guarded your walls on every side;

men of Gammad

were in your towers.

They hung their shields around your walls;

they brought your beauty to perfection.

12‘ “Tarshish did business with you because of your great wealth of goods; they exchanged silver, iron, tin and lead for your merchandise.

13‘ “Greece, Tubal and Meshek did business with you; they traded human beings and articles of bronze for your wares.

14‘ “Men of Beth Togarmah exchanged chariot horses, cavalry horses and mules for your merchandise.

15‘ “The men of Rhodes27:15 Septuagint; Hebrew Dedan traded with you, and many coastlands were your customers; they paid you with ivory tusks and ebony.

16‘ “Aram27:16 Most Hebrew manuscripts; some Hebrew manuscripts and Syriac Edom did business with you because of your many products; they exchanged turquoise, purple fabric, embroidered work, fine linen, coral and rubies for your merchandise.

17‘ “Judah and Israel traded with you; they exchanged wheat from Minnith and confections,27:17 The meaning of the Hebrew for this word is uncertain. honey, olive oil and balm for your wares.

18‘ “Damascus did business with you because of your many products and great wealth of goods. They offered wine from Helbon, wool from Zahar 19and casks of wine from Izal in exchange for your wares: wrought iron, cassia and calamus.

20‘ “Dedan traded in saddle blankets with you.

21‘ “Arabia and all the princes of Kedar were your customers; they did business with you in lambs, rams and goats.

22‘ “The merchants of Sheba and Raamah traded with you; for your merchandise they exchanged the finest of all kinds of spices and precious stones, and gold.

23‘ “Harran, Kanneh and Eden and merchants of Sheba, Ashur and Kilmad traded with you. 24In your market-place they traded with you beautiful garments, blue fabric, embroidered work and multicoloured rugs with cords twisted and tightly knotted.

25‘ “The ships of Tarshish serve

as carriers for your wares.

You are filled with heavy cargo

as you sail the sea.

26Your oarsmen take you

out to the high seas.

But the east wind will break you to pieces

far out at sea.

27Your wealth, merchandise and wares,

your mariners, sailors and shipwrights,

your merchants and all your soldiers,

and everyone else on board

will sink into the heart of the sea

on the day of your shipwreck.

28The shorelands will quake

when your sailors cry out.

29All who handle the oars

will abandon their ships;

the mariners and all the sailors

will stand on the shore.

30They will raise their voice

and cry bitterly over you;

they will sprinkle dust on their heads

and roll in ashes.

31They will shave their heads because of you

and will put on sackcloth.

They will weep over you with anguish of soul

and with bitter mourning.

32As they wail and mourn over you,

they will take up a lament concerning you:

‘Who was ever silenced like Tyre,

surrounded by the sea?’

33When your merchandise went out on the seas,

you satisfied many nations;

with your great wealth and your wares

you enriched the kings of the earth.

34Now you are shattered by the sea

in the depths of the waters;

your wares and all your company

have gone down with you.

35All who live in the coastlands

are appalled at you;

their kings shudder with horror

and their faces are distorted with fear.

36The merchants among the nations scoff at you;

you have come to a horrible end

and will be no more.” ’
