Isaiah 23:15-18
Evangelical Heritage Version
Isaiah 23:15-18
Evangelical Heritage Version
15 In that day Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, the days of a king’s life. After the end of the seventy years, Tyre will be like the prostitute in this song.
16 Pick up a lyre.
Go through the city,
you forgotten prostitute.
Play skillfully.
Sing many songs,
so that you might be remembered once again.
17 At the end of the seventy years, the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will go back to collecting wages, to selling herself to all the kingdoms of the world, to everyone on the surface of the earth. 18 But this time her merchandise and her wages will be dedicated to the Lord. It will not be stored away. Her goods will be for those who live in the presence of the Lord, so that they have enough to eat and clothing that will last.

Isaiah 23:15-18
New International Version
15 At that time Tyre(A) will be forgotten for seventy years,(B) the span of a king’s life. But at the end of these seventy years, it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute:
16 “Take up a harp, walk through the city,
you forgotten prostitute;(C)
play the harp well, sing many a song,
so that you will be remembered.”
17 At the end of seventy years,(D) the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will return to her lucrative prostitution(E) and will ply her trade with all the kingdoms on the face of the earth.(F) 18 Yet her profit and her earnings will be set apart for the Lord;(G) they will not be stored up or hoarded. Her profits will go to those who live before the Lord,(H) for abundant food and fine clothes.(I)
