-"Your wealth, your wares, your merchandise, Your seamen and your sailors, Your repairers of leaks, your dealers in merchandise, And all your men of war who are in you, With all your contingent that is in your midst, Will fall into the heart of the seas On the day of your overthrow.

-"At the sound of the cry of your sailors, The pasture lands will ^(C1)shake.

-"All who handle the oar, The ^(C1)seamen and all the sailors of the sea Will come down from their ships; They will stand on the land,

And they will ^(C1)make their voice heard over you And cry out bitterly. They will ^(C2)throw dust on their heads, They will ^(C3)wallow in ashes.

-"Also they will shave themselves ^(C1)bald for you And ^(C2)put on sackcloth; And they will ^(C3)weep for you in bitterness of soul With bitter mourning.

-"Moreover, in their wailing they will take up a ^(C1)song of mourning for you And sing a song of mourning over you: 'Who is like Tyre, Like her who is silent in the midst of the sea?

-'When your merchandise went out from the seas, You satisfied many peoples; With the ^(C1)abundance of your wealth and your merchandise You enriched the kings of the earth.

-'^(F1)Now that you are ^(C1)broken by the seas In the depths of the waters, Your ^(C2)merchandise and all your company Have fallen in the midst of you.
