Isaiah 23:3-5

EasyEnglish Bible

³ They brought grain to you from Shihor region in Egypt. You received crops that had grown beside the Nile river. Tyre became an important city where traders from many nations came.

⁴ Be ashamed, you people in Sidon. You have become strong because of the sea. But the sea now speaks against you! It says, ‘I have not given birth to any children. I have not taken care of any sons or daughters as a parent should do.’

⁵ When the people in Egypt hear the news about Tyre, they will be very sad and upset.
