Isaiah 23:3-8

Thomson(i) 3 this offspring of merchants on many a water, who made a traffick of nations as of an ingathered harvest? 4 Be ashamed, Sidon, said the sea; even the strength of the sea said, "I did not travail nor did I bring her forth; nor did I nourish her youths, nor educate her virgins; 5 yet when the news shall reach Egypt, sorrow for Tyre will take hold on them." 6 Away to Carthage! Raise the mournful cry, ye who inhabit that isle! 7 Was not she your boast of old, before she was delivered up?" 8 Who hath taken this counsel against the Tyrians? Is she inferior? Or hath she not power? Her merchants are glorious chiefs of the earth."
