⁴ “I will record Rahab^[a](A) and Babylon
    among those who acknowledge me—
Philistia^(B) too, and Tyre^(C), along with Cush^[b]—
    and will say, ‘This one was born in Zion.’”^[c](D)

Wail,^(B) you ships^(C) of Tarshish!^(D)
    For Tyre is destroyed^(E)

whose feet have taken her

    to bring down^(U) her pride in all her splendor
    and to humble^(V) all who are renowned^(W) on the earth.

¹⁰ Till^[b] your land as they do along the Nile,
    Daughter Tarshish,
    for you no longer have a harbor.

they raised up their siege towers,^(AG)
    they stripped its fortresses bare
    and turned it into a ruin.^(AH)

¹⁴ Wail, you ships^(AI) of Tarshish;^(AJ)
    your fortress is destroyed!^(AK)

    the remnant from the coasts of Caphtor.^[a](D)
