Isaiah 23:1-14

1The burdenH4853 of TyreH6865. WailH3213, ye shipsH591 of TarshishH8659; for it is laid wasteH7703, so that there is no houseH1004, no entering inH935: from the landH776 of ChittimH3794 it is revealedH1540 to them. 2Be stillH1826, ye inhabitantsH3427 of the isleH339; thou whom the merchantsH5503 of ZidonH6721, that pass overH5674 the seaH3220, have replenishedH4390.1 3And by greatH7227 watersH4325 the seedH2233 of SihorH7883, the harvestH7105 of the riverH2975, is her revenueH8393; and she is a marketH5505 of nationsH1471. 4Be thou ashamedH954, O ZidonH6721: for the seaH3220 hath spokenH559, even the strengthH4581 of the seaH3220, sayingH559, I travailH2342 not, nor bring forth childrenH3205, neither do I nourishH1431 young menH970, nor bring upH7311 virginsH1330. 5As at the reportH8088 concerning EgyptH4714, so shall they be greatly painedH2342 at the reportH8088 of TyreH6865. 6Pass ye overH5674 to TarshishH8659; wailH3213, ye inhabitantsH3427 of the isleH339. 7Is this your joyousH5947 city, whose antiquityH6927 is of ancientH6924 daysH3117? her own feetH7272 shall carryH2986 her far offH7350 to sojournH1481.2 8Who hath taken this counselH3289 against TyreH6865, the crowningH5849 city, whose merchantsH5503 are princesH8269, whose tradersH3667 are the honourableH3513 of the earthH776? 9The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 hath purposedH3289 it, to stainH2490 the prideH1347 of all gloryH6643, and to bring into contemptH7043 all the honourableH3513 of the earthH776.3 10PassH5674 through thy landH776 as a riverH2975, O daughterH1323 of TarshishH8659: there is no more strengthH4206.4 11He stretchedH5186 his handH3027 over the seaH3220, he shookH7264 the kingdomsH4467: the LORDH3068 hath given a commandmentH6680 against the merchantH3667 city, to destroyH8045 its strongH4581 holdsH4581.567 12And he saidH559, Thou shalt no moreH3254 rejoiceH5937, O thou oppressedH6231 virginH1330, daughterH1323 of ZidonH6721: ariseH6965, pass overH5674 to ChittimH3794; there also shalt thou have no restH5117. 13Behold the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; this peopleH5971 was not, till the AssyrianH804 foundedH3245 it for them that dwell in the wildernessH6728: they set upH6965 its towersH971, they raised upH6209 its palacesH759; and he broughtH7760 it to ruinH4654. 14WailH3213, ye shipsH591 of TarshishH8659: for your strengthH4581 is laid wasteH7703.
