Isaiah 23:11-13
New Catholic Bible
11 The Lord has stretched out his hand over the sea
and brought kingdoms to their knees;
he has commanded the destruction
of the fortresses of Canaan.
12 He has said:
You will exult no more,
O greatly oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon.
Arise and cross over to Cyprus,
but even there you will find no rest.
13 Look at the land of the Chaldeans;
it was this people, not Assyria,
who erected siege-towers,
tore down its palaces,
and left it in ruins.
Isaiah 23:11-13
New International Version
11 The Lord has stretched out his hand(A) over the sea
and made its kingdoms tremble.(B)
He has given an order concerning Phoenicia
that her fortresses be destroyed.(C)
12 He said, “No more of your reveling,(D)
Virgin Daughter(E) Sidon, now crushed!
“Up, cross over to Cyprus;(F)
even there you will find no rest.”
13 Look at the land of the Babylonians,[a](G)
this people that is now of no account!
The Assyrians(H) have made it
a place for desert creatures;(I)
they raised up their siege towers,(J)
they stripped its fortresses bare
and turned it into a ruin.(K)
