10 Go through[a] [or Cultivate; Till] your land, ·people [L daughter] of Tarshish [v. 1],
    like ·the Nile goes through Egypt [or they do along the Nile].
    There is no ·harbor [or marketplace; or restraint; or strength] for you now!
11 The Lord has stretched his hand over the sea
    and made its kingdoms tremble.
He commands that Canaan’s
    ·strong, walled cities [fortresses; strongholds] be destroyed.
12 He said, “·Sidon [L Virgin daughter Sidon], you will not ·rejoice [celebrate] any longer,
    because you are ·destroyed [crushed; oppressed].
·Even if you cross the sea [L Arise, cross over] to ·Cyprus [L Kittim],
    [but] you will not find a place to rest.”
