* Pass through thy land as a river , O daughter of Tarshish : there is no more strength . * 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 . * And he said , Thou shalt no more rejoice , O thou oppressed virgin , daughter of Zidon : arise , pass over to Chittim ; there also shalt thou have no rest . * 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 . * Take an harp , go about the city , thou harlot that hast been forgotten ; make sweet melody , sing many songs , that thou mayest be remembered . * And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years , that the LORD will visit Tyre , and she shall turn to her hire , and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth . * And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD : it shall not be treasured nor laid up ; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the LORD , to eat sufficiently , and for durable clothing .
