Old Testament

New Testament

Isaiah 23:5-12 American Standard Version (ASV)

5. When the report cometh to Egypt, they shall be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.

6. Pass ye over to Tarshish; wail, ye inhabitants of the coast.

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

8. Who hath purposed this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honorable of the earth?

9. Jehovah of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.

10. Pass through thy land as the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no restraint any more.

11. He hath stretched out his hand over the sea, he hath shaken the kingdoms: Jehovah hath given commandment concerning Canaan, to destroy the strongholds thereof.

12. And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon: arise, pass over to Kittim; even there shalt thou have no rest.
