Isaiah 23:11-13
International Standard Version
11 He has stretched out his hand over the sea;
he has made[a] kingdoms tremble.
The Lord has issued orders concerning Canaan
to destroy its strongholds.
12 And he said:
‘You will revel no longer,[b]
you virgin daughter of Sidon,
now crushed.
Get up, cross over to Cyprus—
but even there you will find no rest.’”
Tyre’s Desolation and Restoration
13 “Look at the land of the Chaldeans!
This is a people that no longer exist;
Assyria destined her[c] for desert creatures.[d]
They raised up her[e] siege towers,
they stripped her fortresses bare
and turned her into a ruin.
