I adjure every royal personage, and every man whatsoever, that they opennot this my chamber, nor empty my chamber, nor build aught over this mychamber, nor remove the coffin from this my chamber, lest the Holy Godsdeliver them up, and destroy the royal personage, or the men [whoshall do so], and their offspring for ever. "[1320] The inscription on the tomb of Tabnit, Esmunazar's father, found nearBeyrout in 1886, is shorter, but nearly to the same effect. It has beenthus translated:--"I, Tabnit..., priest of Ashtoreth, and king of Sidon, lying in this tomb, say--I adjure every man, when thou shalt come uponthis sepulchre, open not my chamber, and trouble me not, for there isnot with me aught of silver, nor is there with me aught of gold, thereis not with me anything whatever of spoil, but only I myself who lie inthis sepulchre. Open not my chamber, and trouble me not; for it would bean abomination in the sight of Ashtoreth to do such an act. And if thoushouldest open my chamber, and trouble me, mayest thou have noposterity all thy life under the sun, and no resting-place with thedeparted.
