Isaiah 23:3-5

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³     and were on many waters;
your revenue was the grain of Shihor,
    the harvest of the Nile;
    you were the merchant of the nations.
⁴ Be ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea has spoken,
    the stronghold of the sea, saying:
“I have neither travailed nor given birth,
    I have neither reared young men
    nor brought up virgins.”
⁵ When the report comes to Egypt,
    they will be in anguish over the report about Tyre.
