23:023:005 As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.
23:023:006 Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.
23:023:007 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.
23:023:008 Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city,
whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the
honourable of the earth?
23:023:009 The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all
glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the
earth.
23:023:010 Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish: there is no more strength.
23:023:011 He stretched out his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms:
the LORD hath given a commandment against the merchant city,
to destroy the strong holds thereof.
23:023:012 And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed
virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there
also shalt thou have no rest.
23:023:013 Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin.
23:023:014 Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.
