Isaiah 23:12-14
Contemporary English Version
12 The Lord has said
to the people of Sidon,
“Your celebrating is over—
you are crushed.
Even if you escape to Cyprus,
you won't find peace.”
13 Look what the Assyrians have done to Babylonia! They have attacked, destroying every palace in the land. Now wild animals live among the ruins.[a] 14 Not a fortress will be left standing, so tell all the seagoing ships[b] to mourn.
