21 For ships belonging to the king were going to Tarʹshish+ with the servants of Hiʹram.+ Once every three years ships of Tarʹshish would come in, carrying gold and silver,+ ivory,+ and apes+ and peacocks.
23The pronouncement of Tyre:*+ Howl, YOU ships of Tarʹshish!+ for it has been despoiled from [being] a port,* from [being a place] to enter in.+ From the land of Kitʹtim*+ it has been revealed to them.
9 Silver beaten into plates is what is brought in even from Tarʹshish,+ and gold from Uʹphaz,*+ the workmanship of a craftsman and of the hands of a metalworker; their clothing is blue thread and wool dyed reddish purple. They are all the workmanship of skilled people.+
