| 1 | Oracle sur Tyr. Lamentez-vous, navires de Tarsis ! Car elle est détruite : plus de maisons ! plus d'entrée ! C'est du pays de Kittim que la nouvelle leur en est venue. | The 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. | The 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 Kittim it is revealed to them. |
| 2 | Soyez muets d'effroi, habitants de la côte, Que remplissaient les marchands de Sidon, parcourant la mer ! | Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished. | Be still, ye inhabitants of the coast, thou whom the merchants of Sidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished. |
| 3 | A travers les vastes eaux, le blé du Nil, La moisson du fleuve, était pour elle un revenu ; Elle était le marché des nations. | And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations. | And on great waters the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue; and she was the mart of nations. |
| 4 | Sois confuse, Sidon ! Car ainsi parle la mer, la forteresse de la mer : Je n'ai point eu de douleurs, je n'ai point enfanté, Je n'ai point nourri de jeunes gens, ni élevé de jeunes filles. | Be 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. | Be thou ashamed, O Sidon; for the sea hath spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins. |
| 5 | Quand les Égyptiens sauront la nouvelle, Ils trembleront en apprenant la chute de Tyr. | As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre. | When the report cometh to Egypt, they shall be sorely pained at the report of Tyre. |
| 6 | Passez à Tarsis, Lamentez-vous, habitants de la côte ! | Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle. | Pass ye over to Tarshish; wail, ye inhabitants of the coast. |
| 7 | Est-ce là votre ville joyeuse ? Elle avait une origine antique, Et ses pieds la mènent séjourner au loin. | Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn. | Is this your joyous [city], whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her afar off to sojourn? |
| 8 | Qui a pris cette résolution contre Tyr, la dispensatrice des couronnes, Elle dont les marchands étaient des princes, Dont les commerçants étaient les plus riches de la terre ? | Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth? | Who hath purposed this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honorable of the earth? |
| 9 | C'est l'Éternel des armées qui a pris cette résolution, Pour blesser l'orgueil de tout ce qui brille, Pour humilier tous les grands de la terre. | The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth. | Jehovah of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth. |

| 11 | L'Éternel a étendu sa main sur la mer ; Il a fait trembler les royaumes ; Il a ordonné la destruction des forteresses de Canaan. | He 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. | He hath stretched out his hand over the sea, he hath shaken the kingdoms: Jehovah hath given commandment concerning Canaan, to destroy the strongholds thereof. |
| 12 | Il a dit : Tu ne te livreras plus à la joie, Vierge déshonorée, fille de Sidon ! Lève-toi, passe au pays de Kittim ! Même là, il n'y aura pas de repos pour toi. | And 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. | And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon: arise, pass over to Kittim; even there shalt thou have no rest. |
| 13 | Vois les Chaldéens, qui n'étaient pas un peuple, Ces habitants du désert, pour qui l'Assyrien a fondé un pays ; Ils élèvent des tours, ils renversent les palais de Tyr, Ils les mettent en ruines. | Behold 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. | Behold, the land of the Chaldeans: this people was not; the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness; they set up their towers; they overthrew the palaces thereof; they made it a ruin. |

| 15 | En ce temps-là, Tyr tombera dans l'oubli soixante-dix ans, Ce que dure la vie d'un roi. Au bout de soixante-dix ans, il en sera de Tyr Comme de la prostituée dont parle la chanson : - | And 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. | And 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 it shall be unto Tyre as in the song of the harlot. |
| 16 | Prends la harpe, parcours la ville, Prostituée qu'on oublie ! Joue bien, répète tes chants, Pour qu'on se souvienne de toi ! - | Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered. | Take a harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered. |
| 17 | Au bout de soixante-dix ans, l'Éternel visitera Tyr, Et elle retournera à son salaire impur ; Elle se prostituera à tous les royaumes de la terre, Sur la face du monde. | 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. | And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that Jehovah will visit Tyre, and she shall return to her hire, and shall play the harlot with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth. |
| 18 | Mais son gain et son salaire impur seront consacrés à l'Éternel, Ils ne seront ni entassés ni conservés ; Car son gain fournira pour ceux qui habitent devant l'Éternel Une nourriture abondante et des vêtements magnifiques. | And 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. | And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to Jehovah: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before Jehovah, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing. |
