The Bible

As haink goo yn Chiarn hym's reesht, gra,

The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,

Nish uss vac y dooinney, gow lesh bardoon son Tyrus;

Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;

As abbyr rish Tyrus, O uss ta soit er oirr ny marrey, uss ta marchan y phobble son ymmodee ellanyn, Myr shoh ta'n Chiarn Jee dy ghra, O Tyrus, t'ou er ghra, s'yindyssagh ta my aalid!

And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord God; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of perfect beauty.
