14. Howl with grief, you sailors out on the ocean! The city you relied on has been destroyed.
15. A time is coming when Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, the lifetime of a king. When those years are over, Tyre will be like the prostitute in the song:
16. Take your harp, go round the town,you poor forgotten whore!Play and sing your songs againto bring men back once more.
17. When the seventy years are over, the Lord will let Tyre go back to her old trade, and she will hire herself out to all the kingdoms of the world.
18. The money she earns by commerce will be dedicated to the Lord. She will not store it away, but those who worship the Lord will use her money to buy the food and the clothing they need.
