Isaiah 23:16-18
New King James Version
Isaiah 23:16-18
New King James Version
16 “Take a harp, go about the city,
You forgotten harlot;
Make sweet melody, sing many songs,
That you may be remembered.”
17 And it shall be, at the end of seventy years, that the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will return to her hire, and (A)commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth. 18 Her gain and her pay (B)will be set apart for the Lord; it will not be treasured nor laid up, for her gain will be for those who dwell before the Lord, to eat sufficiently, and for [a]fine clothing.
