1. This message came to me concerning Tyre:Wail, you trading ships of Tarshish,for the harbor and houses of Tyre are gone!The rumors you heard in Cyprusare all true.
2. Mourn in silence, you people of the coastand you merchants of Sidon.Your traders crossed the sea,
3. sailing over deep waters.They brought you grain from Egyptand harvests from along the Nile.You were the marketplace of the world.
