Isaiah 23:13-15
Evangelical Heritage Version
13 (Compare it to the land of the Chaldeans—this people who have become nothing. It was the Assyrians who made it into a dwelling for wild animals from the desert. They raised up siege towers, tore down citadels, and made it a ruin.)
14 Wail, you ships of Tarshish,
because your stronghold is destroyed!
15 In that day Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, the days of a king’s life. After the end of the seventy years, Tyre will be like the prostitute in this song.

they raised up their siege towers,(D)
they stripped its fortresses bare
and turned it into a ruin.(E)
15 At that time Tyre(I) will be forgotten for seventy years,(J) the span of a king’s life. But at the end of these seventy years, it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute:
