5 As at the report concerning Mitzrayim, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tzor.
6 Cross ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the ee (isle, island).
7 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? Her own raglayim shall carry her afar off to sojourn.
8 Who hath devised this against Tzor, the crowning city, whose sokharim (merchants) are sarim (princes), whose traders are the nikhbadei Eretz (honored of the Earth).
9 Hashem Tzva'os hath devised it, to demean the ga'on (pride) of every beauty, and to humble all the nikhbadei Eretz.
10 Pass through thy land like the Nile, O Bat Tarshish; there is no more restraint.
11 He stretched out His Yad over the yam, He shook the mamlakhot (kingdoms); Hashem hath given a commandment against Kena'an, to destroy her ma'a'uzim (fortresses).
