6 Cross over to Tarshish;wail, O inhabitants of the coast!
7 Is this your exultant city whose origin is from days of old,whose feet carried herto settle far away?
8 Who has purposed thisagainst Tyre, the bestower of crowns,whose merchants were princes,whose traders were the honored of the earth?
9 The Lord of hosts has purposed it, to defile the pompous pride of all glory,to dishonor all the honored of the earth.
10 Cross over your land like the Nile,O daughter of Tarshish;there is no restraint anymore.
11 He has stretched out his hand over the sea;he has shaken the kingdoms;the Lord has given command concerning Canaanto destroy its strongholds.
12 And he said:“You will no more exult,O oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon;arise, cross over to Cyprus,even there you will have no rest.”
