Isaiah 23:15-18
Holman Christian Standard Bible
15 On that day Tyre will be forgotten for 70 years—the life span of one king. At the end of 70 years, what the song says about the prostitute will happen to Tyre:
16 Pick up your lyre,
stroll through the city,
prostitute forgotten by men.
Play skillfully,
sing many a song,
and you will be thought of again.
17 And at the end of the 70 years,(A) the Lord will restore Tyre(B) and she will go back into business, prostituting herself with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth. 18 But her profits and wages will be dedicated to the Lord. They will not be stored or saved, for her profit will go to those who live in the Lord’s presence, to provide them with ample food and sacred clothing.

Isaiah 23:15-18
Lexham English Bible
15 And this will happen on that day: And Tyre will be forgotten seventy years,[a]
like the days of one king. At the end of seventy years,[b] it will be for Tyre like the song of the prostitute:
16 “Take a harp,
go around the city, forgotten prostitute!
Do it well, playing a stringed instrument!
Make numerous songs,[c] that you may be remembered.”
17 And this shall happen:
at the end of seventy years,[d] Yahweh will visit Tyre,
and she will return to her harlot’s wages,
and she will commit fornication
with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.
18 And this shall happen:
her merchandise and her harlot’s wages will be set apart for Yahweh;
it will not be stored up,
and it will not be hoarded,
but her merchandise will be for those who live before the presence[e] of Yahweh,
for eating to satiation and for fine clothing.
