Ezekiel 27/יחזקאל כ״ז

אוַיְהִ֥י דְבַר־יְהֹוָ֖ה אֵלַ֥י לֵאמֹֽר׃

1The word of GOD came to me:

בוְאַתָּ֣ה בֶן־אָדָ֔ם שָׂ֥א עַל־צֹ֖ר קִינָֽה׃

2Now you, O mortal, intone a dirge over Tyre.

גוְאָמַרְתָּ֣ לְצ֗וֹר (הישבתי) [הַיֹּשֶׁ֙בֶת֙] עַל־מְבוֹאֹ֣ת יָ֔ם רֹכֶ֙לֶת֙ הָֽעַמִּ֔ים אֶל־אִיִּ֖ים רַבִּ֑ים כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יֱהֹוִ֔ה צ֕וֹר אַ֣תְּ אָמַ֔רְתְּ אֲנִ֖י כְּלִ֥ילַת יֹֽפִי׃

3Say to Tyre:O you who dwell at the gateway of the sea,Who trade with the peoples on many coastlands:Thus said the Sovereign GOD:O Tyre, you boasted,I am perfect in beauty.^a

דבְּלֵ֥ב יַמִּ֖ים גְּבוּלָ֑יִךְ בֹּנַ֕יִךְ כָּלְל֖וּ יׇפְיֵֽךְ׃

4Your frontiers were on the high seas,Your builders perfected your beauty.

הבְּרוֹשִׁ֤ים מִשְּׂנִיר֙ בָּ֣נוּ לָ֔ךְ אֵ֖ת כׇּל־לֻחֹתָ֑יִם אֶ֤רֶז מִלְּבָנוֹן֙ לָקָ֔חוּ לַעֲשׂ֥וֹת תֹּ֖רֶן עָלָֽיִךְ׃

5From cypress trees of SenirThey fashioned your planks;They took a cedar from LebanonTo make a mast for you.

ואַלּוֹנִים֙ מִבָּשָׁ֔ן עָשׂ֖וּ מִשּׁוֹטָ֑יִךְ קַרְשֵׁ֤ךְ עָֽשׂוּ־שֵׁן֙ בַּת־אֲשֻׁרִ֔ים מֵאִיֵּ֖י כִּתִּיִּֽם׃

6From oak trees of BashanThey made your oars;Of boxwood from the isles of Kittim,Inlaid with ivory,They made your decks.

זשֵׁשׁ־בְּרִקְמָ֤ה מִמִּצְרַ֙יִם֙ הָיָ֣ה מִפְרָשֵׂ֔ךְ לִֽהְי֥וֹת לָ֖ךְ לְנֵ֑ס תְּכֵ֧לֶת וְאַרְגָּמָ֛ן מֵאִיֵּ֥י אֱלִישָׁ֖ה הָיָ֥ה מְכַסֵּֽךְ׃

7Embroidered linen from EgyptWas the clothThat served you for sails;Of blue and purple from the coasts of ElishahWere your awnings.

חיֹשְׁבֵ֤י צִידוֹן֙ וְאַרְוַ֔ד הָי֥וּ שָׁטִ֖ים לָ֑ךְ חֲכָמַ֤יִךְ צוֹר֙ הָ֣יוּ בָ֔ךְ הֵ֖מָּה חֹבְלָֽיִךְ׃

32They shall intone a dirge over you as they wail,And lament for you thus:Who was like Tyre when she was silencedIn the midst of the sea?

לגבְּצֵ֤את עִזְבוֹנַ֙יִךְ֙ מִיַּמִּ֔ים הִשְׂבַּ֖עַתְּ עַמִּ֣ים רַבִּ֑ים בְּרֹ֤ב הוֹנַ֙יִךְ֙ וּמַ֣עֲרָבַ֔יִךְ הֶעֱשַׁ֖רְתְּ מַלְכֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃

33When your wares were unloaded from the seas,You satisfied many peoples;With your great wealth and merchandiseYou enriched the kings of the earth.

לדעֵ֛ת נִשְׁבֶּ֥רֶת מִיַּמִּ֖ים בְּמַֽעֲמַקֵּי־מָ֑יִם מַעֲרָבֵ֥ךְ וְכׇל־קְהָלֵ֖ךְ בְּתוֹכֵ֥ךְ נָפָֽלוּ׃

34But when you were wrecked on the seas,In the deep waters sank your merchandiseAnd all the crew aboard you.

להכֹּ֚ל יֹשְׁבֵ֣י הָאִיִּ֔ים שָׁמְמ֖וּ עָלָ֑יִךְ וּמַלְכֵיהֶם֙ שָׂ֣עֲרוּ שַׂ֔עַר רָעֲמ֖וּ פָּנִֽים׃

35All the inhabitants of the coastlandsAre appalled over you;Their kings are aghast,Their faces contorted.^j

לוסֹֽחֲרִים֙ בָּֽעַמִּ֔ים שָׁרְק֖וּ עָלָ֑יִךְ בַּלָּה֣וֹת הָיִ֔ית וְאֵינֵ֖ךְ עַד־עוֹלָֽם׃

36The merchants among the peoples hissed^k at you;You have become a horror,And have ceased to be forever.
