³And Tyrus did build herself a strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.

⁵Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gaza also shall see it, and be very sorrowful, and Ekron; for her expectation shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.

¹⁰Ary hofoanako tsy hisy kalesy intsony Efraima, Na soavaly any Jerosalema, Hofoanana koa ny tsipìka fiadiana, Ary hiteny fiadanana amin'ny jentilisa Izy; Ny fanapahany dia hatramin'ny ranomasina ka hatramin'ny ranomasina Ary hatramin'ny Ony ka hatramin'ny faran'ny tany. [Eofrata]

¹¹As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

¹¹Ny aminao koa, noho ny ran'ny fanekena taminao No efa namoahako ny mpifatotrao avy tao an-davaka tsy misy rano.

¹³When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.
