Isaiah 23:14

← Isaiah 23:13	Isaiah 23:14 (KJV)	Isaiah 23:15 →
Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, [till] the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; [and] he brought it to ruin.	Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.	And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.
