English Standard Version
Isaiah 23:3-10
3And on many waters your revenue was the grain of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile; you were the merchant of the nations.
4Be ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying: "I have neither labored nor given birth, I have neither reared young men nor brought up young women."
5When the report comes to Egypt, they will be in anguish over the report about Tyre.
6Cross over to Tarshish; wail, O inhabitants of the coast!
7Is this your exultant city whose origin is from days of old, whose feet carried her to settle far away?
8Who has purposed this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, whose merchants were princes, whose traders were the honored of the earth?
9The Lord of hosts has purposed it, to defile the pompous pride of all glory, to dishonor all the honored of the earth.
10Cross over your land like the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no restraint anymore.
