2Now, thou sonH1121 of manH120, take upH5375 a lamentationH7015 for TyreH6865;

3And sayH559 unto TyreH6865, O thou that art situateH3427 at the entryH3997 of the seaH3220, which art a merchantH7402 of the peopleH5971 for manyH7227 islesH339, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069; O TyreH6865, thou hast saidH559, I am of perfectH3632 beautyH3308.1

4Thy bordersH1366 are in the midstH3820 of the seasH3220, thy buildersH1129 have perfectedH3634 thy beautyH3308.2
