The burden of Tyre, and the words to the ships of Tarshish

두로에 관한 경고와 다시스의 선척들을 향한 말

Isaiah 23:1–14: the heading reads, “The burden of Tyre.” The text goes on, “Howl, you 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. Be still, you inhabitants of the coast, you whom the merchants of Sidon that pass over the sea have replenished. On great waters, the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue. She was the market of nations. Be ashamed, Sidon; for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, ‘I have not travailed, nor given birth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins.’ When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish at the report of Tyre. Pass over to Tarshish! Wail, you inhabitants of the coast! Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her far away to travel? Who has planned this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the honorable of the earth? The LORD of Armies has planned it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth. Pass through your land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish. There is no restraint any more. He has stretched out his hand over the sea. He has shaken the kingdoms. The LORD has ordered the destruction of Canaan’s strongholds. He said, ‘You shall rejoice no more, you oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon. Arise, pass over to Kittim. Even there you will have no rest.’ Behold, the land of the Chaldeans. This people didn’t exist. The Assyrians founded it for those who dwell in the wilderness. They set up their towers. They overthrew its palaces. They made it a ruin. Howl, you ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste!” The Korean Revised Version names Tyre at 23:1 (두로가 황무하여), where WEB reads “it is laid waste”, and reads at 23:3 시홀의 곡식 곧 나일의 추수, joined with 곧, where WEB reads “the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile”. It names the LORD twice at 23:11 (여호와께서 바다 위에 손을 펴사 열방을 흔드시며 여호와께서 가나안에 대하여 명을 내려), where WEB reads “He has stretched out his hand over the sea” and then “The LORD has ordered”; and at 23:13 it reads 그 백성이 없어졌나니 곧 앗수르 사람이 들짐승의 거하는 곳이 되게 하였으되, where WEB reads “This people didn’t exist. The Assyrians founded it for those who dwell in the wilderness.”

    1The burden of Tyre. Howl, you 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.

    2Be still, you inhabitants of the coast, you whom the merchants of Sidon that pass over the sea have replenished.

    3On great waters, the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue. She was the market of nations.

    4Be ashamed, Sidon; for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, “I have not travailed, nor given birth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins.”

    5When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish at the report of Tyre.

    6Pass over to Tarshish! Wail, you inhabitants of the coast!

    7Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her far away to travel?

    8Who has planned this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the honorable of the earth?

    9The LORD of Armies has planned it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.

    10Pass through your land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish. There is no restraint any more.

    11He has stretched out his hand over the sea. He has shaken the kingdoms. The LORD has ordered the destruction of Canaan’s strongholds.

    12He said, “You shall rejoice no more, you oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon. Arise, pass over to Kittim. Even there you will have no rest.”

    13Behold, the land of the Chaldeans. This people didn’t exist. The Assyrians founded it for those who dwell in the wilderness. They set up their towers. They overthrew its palaces. They made it a ruin.

    14Howl, you ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste!
