Isaiah 23:3-10

3On the greatH7227 watersH4325 came the grainH2233 of ShihorH7883; the harvestH7105 of the NileH2975 was the revenue of TyreH8393; she wasH1961 the merchantH5504 of the nationsH1471.4Be ashamedH954, O SidonH6721, the strongholdH4581 of the seaH3220, forH3588 the seaH3220H559 has spokenH559: “I have notH3808 been in laborH2342 or given birthH3205H3808. I have notH3808 raisedH1431 young menH970 or brought upH7311 young womenH1330.”5WhenH834 the reportH8088 reaches EgyptH4714, they will writhe in agonyH2342 over the newsH8088 of TyreH6865.

6Cross overH5674 to TarshishH8659;wailH3213, O inhabitantsH3427 of the coastlandH339!7Is thisH2063 your jubilant cityH5947,whose originH6927 is from antiquityH6924H3117,whose feetH7272 have taken herH2986to settleH1481 far awayH7350?8WhoH4310 plannedH3289 thisH2063 againstH5921 TyreH6865,the bestower of crownsH5849,whoseH834 tradersH5503 are princesH8269,whose merchantsH3667 are renownedH3513 on the earthH776?9The LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 planned itH3289,to defileH2490 allH3605 its gloriousH1347 beautyH6643,to disgraceH7043 allH3605 the renownedH3513 of the earthH776.
10CultivateH56741 your landH776 like the NileH2975, O DaughterH1323 of TarshishH8659;there is noH369 longerH5750 a harborH4206.
