<h3>A Lament for Tyre</h3>27 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Now you, son of man, raise a lamentation over Tyre, 3 and say to Tyre, who dwells at the entrances to the sea, merchant of the peoples to many coastlands, thus says the Lord God:<poetry>“O Tyre, you have said, <indent>‘I am perfect in beauty.’</indent> 4 <poetry>Your borders are in the heart of the seas; <indent>your builders made perfect your beauty.</indent> </poetry> 5 <poetry>They made all your planks <indent>of fir trees from Senir;</indent> they took a cedar from Lebanon <indent>to make a mast for you.</indent> </poetry> 6 <poetry>Of oaks of Bashan <indent>they made your oars;</indent> they made your deck of pines <indent>from the coasts of Cyprus,</indent> <indent>inlaid with ivory.</indent> </poetry> 7 <poetry> Of fine embroidered linen from Egypt <indent>was your sail,</indent> <indent>serving as your banner;</indent> blue and purple from the coasts of Elishah <indent>was your awning.</indent> </poetry> 8 <poetry>The inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad <indent>were your rowers;</indent> your skilled men, O Tyre, were in you; <indent>they were your pilots.</indent> </poetry> 9 <poetry>The elders of Gebal and her skilled men were in you, <indent> caulking your seams;</indent> all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in you <indent>to barter for your wares.</indent></poetry></poetry> 10 “Persia and Lud and Put were in your army as your men of war. They hung the shield and helmet in you; they gave you splendor. 11 Men of Arvad and Helech were on your walls all around, and men of Gamad were in your towers. They hung their shields on your walls all around; they made perfect your beauty. 12 “Tarshish did business with you because of your great wealth of every kind; silver, iron, tin, and lead they exchanged for your wares. 13 Javan, Tubal, and Meshech traded with you; they exchanged human beings and vessels of bronze for your merchandise. 14 From Beth-togarmah they exchanged horses, war horses, and mules for your wares. 15 The men of Dedan traded with you.

From Wikipedia: 

The English Standard Version (ESV) is an English translation of the Bible. The ESV was published in 2001 by Crossway, having been "created by a team of more than 100 leading evangelical scholars and pastors." The ESV relies on recently published critical editions of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. Crossway claim that the ESV continues a legacy begun by the Tyndale New Testament of precision and faithfulness in English translation of the original text, followed in the same standard by "the King James Version of 1611 (KJV), the English Revised Version of 1885 (RV), the American Standard Version of 1901 (ASV), and the Revised Standard Version of 1952 and 1971." Crossway describes the ESV as a translation that "emphasizes 'word-for-word' accuracy, literary excellence, and depth of meaning." Crossway also describes the ESV as a translation that adheres to an "essentially literal" translation philosophy, taking into account "differences in grammar, syntax, and idiom between current literary English and the original languages."

The ESV is derived from the 1971 text edition of the Revised Standard Version (RSV). ESV Translation Oversight Committee member Wayne Grudem claims that approximately eight percent (or about 60,000 words) of the 1971 RSV text being used for the ESV was revised as of first publication in 2001. Grudem states that the committee removed "every trace of liberal influence that had caused such criticism from evangelicals when the RSV was first published in 1952." Although, Grudem also states that much of the 1971 RSV text left unchanged by the committee "is simply 'the best of the best' of the KJV tradition."

With regard to gender language, the ESV Translation Oversight Committee state that "the goal of the ESV is to render literally what is in the original."[9] The committee expands on this position in claiming that, although the ESV avoids using gender-neutral language (for the purpose of preserving contextual meaning found in the original text), the translation does utilize gender-neutral language in specific cases. The committee further state that their objective was "transparency to the original text, allowing the reader to understand the original on its own terms rather than in the terms of our present-day Western culture."[9] The ESV Study Bible often details in its commentary why a complementarian interpretation of the original text may have been rendered in translation.
