Isaiah 23 Proclamation Against Tyre

Isaiah 23:1-18 Proclamation Against Tyre

Isaiah 23:6-9
6
Cross over to Tarshish;
Wail, you inhabitants of the coastland!
7
Is this your joyous city,
Whose antiquity is from ancient days,
Whose feet carried her far off to dwell?
8
Who has taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city,
Whose merchants are princes,
Whose traders are the honorable of the earth?
9
The Lord of hosts has purposed it,
To bring to dishonor the pride of all glory,
To bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.

Isaiah 23:17-18
17 And it shall be, at the end of seventy years, that the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will return to her hire, and commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth. 18 Her gain and her pay will be set apart for the Lord; it will not be treasured nor laid up, for her gain will be for those who dwell before the Lord, to eat sufficiently, and for fine clothing.
