“Thy borders are in the midst of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.”
“Thy borders are in the heart of the seas; thy builders have perfected thy beauty. ”
“Your borders are in the heart of the seas; your builders have perfected your beauty.”
“Your borders are in the heart of the seas; your builders have perfected your beauty.”
“And situate in the heart of the sea. Thy neighbours, that built thee, have perfected thy beauty:”
“Your builders have made your outlines in the heart of the seas, they have made you completely beautiful.”
“Thy borders are in the midst of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.”
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
“You, therefore, son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre.
And you shall say to Tyre, which lives at the entrance to the sea, which is the marketplace of the peoples for the many islands: Thus says the Lord God: O Tyre, you have said, ‘I am of perfect beauty,
for I have been positioned at the heart of the sea!’ Your neighbors, who built you, have filled up your beauty.
They constructed you with spruce from Senir, with all the planks of the sea. They have taken cedars from Lebanon, so that they might make a mast for you.
They have formed your oars from the oaks of Bashan. And they have made your crossbeams from Indian ivory, and the pilothouse is from the islands of Italy.
Colorful fine linen from Egypt was woven for you as a sail to be placed upon the mast; hyacinth and purple from the islands of Elishah were made into your covering.
