Isaiah 23:14-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 Lament, ships of Tarshish,
for your stronghold is destroyed.
15 On that day, Tyre shall be forgotten for seventy years,[a] the lifetime of one king. At the end of seventy years, the song about the prostitute will be Tyre’s song:
16 Take a harp, go about the city,
forgotten prostitute;
Pluck the strings skillfully, sing many songs,
that you may be remembered.
Isaiah 23:14-16
New International Version
15 At that time Tyre(D) will be forgotten for seventy years,(E) 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:
16 “Take up a harp, walk through the city,
you forgotten prostitute;(F)
play the harp well, sing many a song,
so that you will be remembered.”
