Isaiah 23:9-11
Evangelical Heritage Version

9 The Lord of Armies has planned this,
to strip their pride of all its glory,
to humiliate those who were honored around the world.
10 Overflow your land,[a] daughter of Tarshish,
    like the Nile overflowing its banks.
You no longer have a harbor as a marketplace.[b]
11 He has stretched out his hand over the sea.
He has shaken the kingdoms.
It is the Lord who has ordered the destruction
    of Canaan’s[c] fortresses.
