Isaiah 23:6-9

6Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.

7Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.1

8Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth?

9Yhwh of Armies hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.2
