Isaiah 23:2-6

21Be silent, you inhabitants of the coastland, You merchants of Sidon; 2Your messengers crossed the sea3And were on many waters. 3The grain of the 45Nile, the harvest of the River was her revenue; And she was the 6market of nations.4Be ashamed, 7Sidon, For the sea speaks, the stronghold of the sea, saying, “I have neither been in labor nor given birth, I have neither brought up young men nor raised virgins.”5When the report reaches Egypt, They will be in 8anguish over the report of Tyre.6Pass over to 9Tarshish; Wail, you inhabitants of the coastland.
