Isaiah 23:3-10
3the deep waters! Grain from the Shihor region, crops grown near the Nile she receives; she is the trade center of the nations.
4Be ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea says this, O fortress of the sea: “I have not gone into labor or given birth; I have not raised young men or brought up young women.”
5When the news reaches Egypt, they will be shaken by what has happened to Tyre.
6Travel to Tarshish! Wail, you residents of the coast!
7Is this really your boisterous city whose origins are in the distant past, and whose feet led her to a distant land to reside?
8Who planned this for royal Tyre, whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the dignitaries of the earth?
9The Lord who commands armies planned it – to dishonor the pride that comes from all her beauty, to humiliate all the dignitaries of the earth.
10Daughter Tarshish, travel back to your land, as one crosses the Nile; there is no longer any marketplace in Tyre.
