Isaiah 23:15-17
English Standard Version Anglicised
15 In that day Tyre will be forgotten for (A)seventy years, like the days[a] of one king. At the end of (B)seventy years, it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute:
16 “Take a harp;
go about the city,
O forgotten prostitute!
Make sweet melody;
sing many songs,
that you may be remembered.”
17 At the end of (C)seventy years, the Lord will visit Tyre, and she will return to her wages and (D)will prostitute herself with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.
