यशायाह 23

1A declaration about Tyre: Instead of Cyprus , some modern versions keep Kittim , the Hebrew name for this island. 2Be silent, you inhabitants of the coast; the merchant of Sidon, Some ancient and modern versions have Be silent, you inhabitants of the coast; the merchants of Sidon, who travel over the sea, have filled you or Be silent, you inhabitants of the coast and you merchants of Sidon, whom those who travel over the sea have filled . 3Upon the great waters was the grain of Shihor, 4Be ashamed, Sidon; for the sea has spoken, the mighty one of the sea. He says, 5When the report comes to Egypt, they will be grieved concerning Tyre. 6Cross over to Tarshish; wail, you inhabitants of the coast. 7Has this happened to you, the joyful city, whose origin is from ancient times, 8Who has planned this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, 9Yahweh of hosts has planned it to dishonor her pride 10Plow your land, as one plows the Nile, daughter of Tarshish. There is no longer a marketplace in Tyre. Instead of Plow your land , some versions have Pass through your land or Overflow your land . 11Yahweh has reached out with his hand over the sea, and he has shaken the kingdoms; 12He said, “You will not rejoice again, oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon; 13See the land of the Chaldeans. This people has ceased to be; the Assyrians have made it a wilderness for wild animals. 14Howl, you ships of Tarshish; for your refuge has been destroyed. 15In that day, Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, like the days of a king. After the end of seventy years there will happen in Tyre something like in the song of the prostitute. 16Take a harp, go about the city, you forgotten prostitute; 17It will come about that after seventy years, Yahweh will help Tyre, and she will start making money again by doing the work of a prostitute, and she will offer her services to all the kingdoms of the earth.
