27 1The word of Yahweh came to me:A funeral song for Tyre. Eze.27.1-36וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהוָה אֵלַי לֵאמֹר׃
2"Now you, son of man, raise a lamentation over Tyre, וְאַתָּה בֶן־אָדָם שָׂא עַל־צֹר קִינָה׃
3and say to Tyre, who dwells at the entrance to the sea, merchant of the peoples on many coastlands, thus says Yahweh GOD:

"O Tyre, you have said,
'I am perfect in beauty.'

 וְאָמַרְתָּ לְצֹור כ= הַיֹּשְׁבֹתֵי ק= הַיֹּשֶׁבֶת עַל־מְבֹואֹת יָם רֹכֶלֶת הָעַמִּים אֶל־אִיִּים רַבִּים כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה צֹור אַתְּ אָמַרְתְּ אֲנִי כְּלִילַת יֹפִי׃
4Your borders are in the heart of the seas;
your builders made perfect your beauty.

of fir trees from Senir;
they took a cedar from Lebanon
to make a mast for you.

they made your deck of pines
from the coasts of Cyprus,
inlaid with ivory.

was your sail,
serving as your ensign;

into the high seas.
The east wind has wrecked you
in the heart of the seas.

sink into the heart of the seas
on the day of your ruin.
 הֹונֵךְ וְעִזְבֹונַיִךְ מַעֲרָבֵךְ מַלָּחַיִךְ וְחֹבְלָיִךְ מַחֲזִיקֵי בִדְקֵכְם וְעֹרְבֵי מַעֲרָבֵךְ וְכָל־אַנְשֵׁי מִלְחַמְתֵּךְ אֲשֶׁר־בָּךְ וּבְכָל־קְהָלֵךְ אֲשֶׁר בְּתֹוךֵךְ יִפְּלוּ בְּלֵב יַמִּים בְּיֹום מַפַּלְתֵּךְ׃

29and down from their ships
come all that handle the oar.
The mariners and all the pilots of the sea
stand on the shore
 וְיָרְדוּ מֵאֳנִיֹּותֵיהֶם כֹּל תֹּפְשֵׂי מָשֹׁוט מַלָּחִים כֹּל חֹבְלֵי הַיָּם אֶל־הָאָרֶץ יַעֲמֹדוּ׃

and cry bitterly.

and wallow in ashes;

and gird themselves with sackcloth,
and they weep over you in bitterness of soul,
with bitter mourning.

and lament over you:
'Who was ever destroyed like Tyre
in the midst of the sea?

you satisfied many peoples;
with your abundant wealth and merchandise
you enriched the kings of the earth.

34Now you are wrecked by the seas,
in the depths of the waters;
your merchandise and all your crew
have sunk with you.
 עֵת נִשְׁבֶּרֶת מִיַּמִּים בְּמַעֲמַקֵּי־מָיִם מַעֲרָבֵךְ וְכָל־קְהָלֵךְ בְּתֹוךֵךְ נָפָלוּ׃
35All the inhabitants of the coastlands
are appalled at you;
and their kings are horribly afraid,
their faces are convulsed.
 כֹּל יֹשְׁבֵי הָאִיִּים שָׁמְמוּ עָלָיִךְ וּמַלְכֵיהֶם שָׂעֲרוּ שַׂעַר רָעֲמוּ פָּנִים׃
36The merchants among the peoples hiss at you;
you have come to a dreadful end
and shall be no more for ever.' "		 סֹחֲרִים בָּעַמִּים שָׁרְקוּ עָלָיִךְ בַּלָּהֹות הָיִית וְאֵינֵךְ עַד־עֹולָם׃ ס
Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background. Any mismatches, truncated verses, other mistakes? Please e-mail me.
