Your sail was fine linen with colorful weaving from Egypt
    to serve as a banner for you;[a]
blue and purple cloth from the coastlands of Cyprus[b]
    was your awning.

    were your rowers;

    and they were your seamen.

    as the repairers of the seam of your boat;
all of the ships of the sea and their mariners were among you[g]
    to barter your wares.
