Isaiah 23
King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them.
1Ὀλολύξατε, πλοῖα Καρχηδόνος, ὅτι ἀπώλετο, καὶ οὐκέτι ἔρχονται ἐκ γῆς Κιτιαίων, ἦκται αἰχμάλωτος.
2Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
2Τίνι ὅμοιοι γεγόνασιν οἱ ἐνοικοῦντες ἐν τῇ νήσῳ, μετάβολοι Φοινίκης, διαπερῶντες τὴν θάλασσαν
3And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.
3ἐν ὕδατι πολλῷ, σπέρμα μετάβολων; ὡς ἀμητοῦ εἰσφερομένου, οἱ μεταβόλοι τῶν ἐθνῶν.
4Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins.
4αἰσχύνθητι Σιδὼν, εἶπεν ἡ θάλασσα· ἡ δὲ ἰσχὺς τῆς θαλάσσης εἶπεν, οὐκ ὤδινον, οὐδὲ ἔτεκον, οὐδὲ ἐξέθρεψα νεανίσκους, οὐδὲ ὕψωσα παρθένους.
5As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.
5Ὅταν δὲ ἀκουστὸν γένηται Αἰγύπτῳ, λήμψεται αὐτοὺς ὀδύνη περὶ Τύρου.
6Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.
6Ἀπέλθατε εἰς Καρχηδόνα, ὀλολύξατε οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν τῇ νήσῳ ταύτῃ.
7Is this your joyous city , whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.
7Οὐχ αὕτη ἦν ὑμῶν ἡ ὕβρις ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς, πρινὴ παραδοθῆναι αὐτήν;
8Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city , whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth?
8Τίς ταῦτα ἐβούλευσεν ἐπὶ Τύρον; μὴ ἥσσων ἐστίν, ἢ οὐκ ἰσχύει; οἱ ἔμποροι αὐτῆς ἔνδοξοι ἄρχοντες τῆς γῆς.
9The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.
9Κύριος σαβαὼθ ἐβουλεύσατο παραλῦσαι πᾶσαν τὴν ὕβριν τῶν ἐνδόξων, καὶ ἀτιμάσαι πᾶν ἔνδοξον ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
10Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish: there is no more strength.
10Ἐργάζου τὴν γῆν σου, καὶ γὰρ πλοῖα οὐκέτι ἔρχεται ἐκ Καρχηδόνος.
11He stretched out his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms: the LORD hath given a commandment against the merchant city , to destroy the strong holds thereof.
11Ἡ δὲ χείρ σου οὐκέτι ἰσχύει κατὰ θάλασσαν, ἡ παροξύνουσα βασιλεῖς· Κύριος σαβαὼθ ἐνετείλατο περὶ Χαναὰν ἀπολέσαι αὐτῆς τὴν ἰσχύν.
12And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there also shalt thou have no rest.
12Καὶ ἐροῦσιν, οὐκέτι οὐ μὴ προστεθῆτε τοῦ ὑβρίζειν καὶ ἀδικεῖν τὴν θυγατέρα Σιδῶνος· καὶ ἐὰν ἀπέλθῃς εἰς Κιτιεῖς, οὐδὲ ἐκεῖ ἀνάπαυσις ἔσται σοι·
13Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin.
13Καὶ εἰς γῆν Χαλδαίων, καὶ αὕτη ἠρήμωται ἀπὸ τῶν Ἀσσυρίων, ὅτι ὁ τοῖχος αὐτῆς πέπτωκεν.
14Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.
14Ὀλολύξατε πλοῖα Καρχηδόνος, ὅτι ἀπόλωλε τὸ ὀχύρωμα ὑμῶν.
15And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.
15Καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καταλειφθήσεται Τύρος ἔτη ἑβδομήκοντα, ὡς χρόνος βασιλέως, ὡς χρόνος ἀνθρώπου· καὶ ἔσται μετὰ ἑβδομήκοντα ἔτη, ἔσται Τύρος ὡς ᾆσμα πόρνης.
16Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
16Λάβε κιθάραν, ῥέμβευσον πόλις πόρνη ἐπιλελησμένη, καλῶς κιθάρισον, πολλὰ ᾆσον, ἵνα σου μνεία γένηται.
17¶ And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
17Καὶ ἔσται μετὰ τὰ ἑβδομήκοντα ἔτη, ἐπισκοπὴν ποιήσει ὁ Θεὸς Τύρου, καὶ πάλιν ἀποκαταστήσεται εἰς τὸ ἀρχαῖον, καὶ ἔσται ἐμπόριον πάσαις ταῖς βασιλείαις τῆς οἰκουμένης ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τῆς γῆς.
18And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD : it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the LORD , to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.
18Καὶ ἔσται αὐτῆς ἡ ἐμπορία καὶ ὁ μισθὸς ἅγιον Κυρίῳ· οὐκ αὐτοῖς συναχθήσεται, ἀλλὰ τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν ἔναντι Κυρίου, πᾶσα ἡ ἐμπορία αὐτῆς, φαγεῖν καὶ πιεῖν καὶ ἐμπλησθῆναι, καὶ εἰς συμβολὴν μνημόσυνον ἔναντι Κυρίου.
