ISA 23:9 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

to,profane pride_of all/each/any/every glory to,treat_with_contempt all/each/any/every honoured_of earth

These two clauses mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לְ⁠חַלֵּל֙ גְּא֣וֹן כָּל צְבִ֔י

to,profane pride_of all/each/any/every glory

Isaiah is speaking as if the pride of Tyre were a sacred object that Yahweh would profane. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [to dishonor all of their great pride]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

גְּא֣וֹן כָּל צְבִ֔י

pride_of all/each/any/every glory

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of pride and splendor, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: [all that it gloried in and was proud of]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

נִכְבַּדֵּי אָֽרֶץ

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

נִכְבַּדֵּי אָֽרֶץ

honoured_of earth

Isaiah is using the adjective honored as a noun to mean a certain kind of person. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you can translate this adjective with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [the people who were held in honor on the earth]
