Bible. Isaiah
23:022:020 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my
servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:
23:022:021 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with
thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand:
and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and
to the house of Judah.
23:022:022 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his
shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall
shut, and none shall open.
23:022:023 And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall
be for a glorious throne to his father's house.
23:022:024 And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's
house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small
quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of
flagons.
23:022:025 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that is
fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and
fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for
the LORD hath spoken it.
23:023:001 The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid
waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the
land of Chittim it is revealed to them.
23:023:002 Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants
of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
23:023:003 And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the
river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.
23:023:004 Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the
strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth
children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up
virgins.
23:023:005 As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely
pained at the report of Tyre.
23:023:006 Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.
23:023:007 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days?
her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.
23:023:008 Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city,
whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the
honourable of the earth?
23:023:009 The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all
glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the
earth.
23:023:010 Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish:
there is no more strength.
23:023:011 He stretched out his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms:
the LORD hath given a commandment against the merchant city,
to destroy the strong holds thereof.
