1 Un mensaje sobre Tiro. ¡Aúllen, gente de los barcos de Tarsis! La ciudad de Tiro ha sido destruida y no queda niguna de sus casas ni cosa alguna en el puerto. Se enteraron de la noticia por la gente de Chipre.
1 The 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.
2 Permanezcan en silencio, habitantes de las costas, mercaderes de Sidón y marineros.
2 Be still, you inhabitants of the coast, you whom the merchants of Sidon that pass over the sea have replenished.
3 El grano egipcio llegó a través de los amplios océanos. La cosecha del Nilo era lo que hacía ganar dinero a Tiro; pues era el mercader de las naciones.
3 On great waters, the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue. She was the market of nations.
4 ¡Siente la vergüenza, Sidón! Porque la fortaleza del mar dice: “No tengo hijos, ya que nunca he dado a luz ni he dado a luz. No he criado a jóvenes ni he educado a mujeres jóvenes”.
4 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.”
5 Cuando las noticias sobre Tiro lleguen a Egipto, se angustiarán.
5 When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish at the report of Tyre.
6 ¡Naveguen y crucen hacia Tarsis! ¡Lloren, habitantes de las costas!
6 Pass over to Tarshish! Wail, you inhabitants of the coast!
7 ¿Es ésta realmente su ciudad triunfante, cuyos comienzos se remontan a un pasado lejano, que ha enviado gente a colonizar lugares lejanos?
7 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her far away to travel?
8 ¿Quién ha planeado este ataque a Tiro? ¡Tiro, que creó reinos, cuyos mercaderes eran príncipes, cuyos comerciantes eran honrados en todo el mundo!
8 Who has planned this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the honorable of the earth?
9 El Señor Todopoderoso lo planeó, para humillar su orgullo en toda su gloria, y para derribar a todos los que reciben honores mundanos.
9 Yahweh of Armies has planned it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
10 Cultiva tu tierra, pueblo de Tarsis, como lo hacen junto al Nilo, pues ya no tienes puerto.
10 Pass through your land like the Nile, daughter of Tarshish. There is no restraint any more.
11 El Señor extendió su mano sobre el mar y sacudió los reinos. Ha condenado a Fenicia, dando la orden de destruir sus fortalezas.
11 He has stretched out his hand over the sea. He has shaken the kingdoms. Yahweh has ordered the destruction of Canaan’s strongholds.
12 Dijo: “No festejes más, virgen maltratada hija de Sidón. Ve y navega hasta Chipre; pero ni siquiera allí encontrarás descanso”.
12 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.”
13 ¡Mira el país de los babilonios, este pueblo que ya no es como antes! Los asirios lo han convertido en un lugar para animales del desierto. Levantaron sus torres de asedio, demolieron las fortalezas y arruinaron el país.
13 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.
14 ¡Giman a gritos, gente en los barcos de Tarsis, porque su fortaleza está destruida!
14 Howl, you ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste!
15 En ese momento la ciudad de Tiro será olvidada durante setenta años, que es como la vida de un rey, por así decirlo. Pero al final de estos setenta años, Tiro será como la canción que habla de una prostituta:
15 It will come to pass in that day that Tyre will be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. After the end of seventy years it will be to Tyre like in the song of the prostitute.
16 ¡Toma una lira y recorre la ciudad, prostituta olvidada! Toca y canta para que la gente se acuerde de ti.
16 Take a harp; go about the city, you prostitute that has been forgotten. Make sweet melody. Sing many songs, that you may be remembered.
17 Después de setenta años, el Señor restaurará Tiro. Pero entonces volverá a ofrecer sus servicios como una prostituta, vendiéndose a todos los reinos del mundo.
17 It will happen after the end of seventy years that Yahweh will visit Tyre. She will return to her wages, and will play the prostitute with all the kingdoms of the world on the surface of the earth.
18 Sin embargo, sus beneficios y lo que gane será consagrado al Señor. No se guardará ni ahorrará, porque sus ganancias de los negocios irán a los que adoran al Señor, para proveerlos de abundante comida y buenas ropas.
18 Her merchandise and her wages will be holiness to Yahweh. It will not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise will be for those who dwell before Yahweh, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 23:1 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm XLVIII)

    For in the Prophet Isaiah it is thus found: "Howl, ye ships of Carthage." But in Ezekiel by some interpreters the word is translated Carthage, by some Tarshish: and from this diversity it can be understood that the same which was called Carthage, is called Tharsus.
