4 Be ashamed, O Sidon;
For the sea has spoken,
The strength of the sea, saying,
“I do not labor, nor bring forth children;
Neither do I rear young men,
Nor bring up virgins.”

5 ^aWhen the report reaches Egypt,
They also will be in agony at the report of Tyre. ‡

7 Is this your ^ajoyous city,
Whose antiquity is from ancient days,
Whose feet carried her far off to dwell? ‡

8 Who has taken this counsel against Tyre, ^athe crowning city,
Whose merchants are princes,
Whose traders are the honorable of the earth? ‡
