Isaiah 23:1-3

Revised Standard Version

23 The oracle concerning Tyre.
Wail, O ships of Tarshish,
    for Tyre is laid waste, without house or haven!
From the land of Cyprus
    it is revealed to them.
² Be still, O inhabitants of the coast,
    O merchants of Sidon;
your messengers passed over the sea^[a]
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.
