To1 bring to dishonor the bpride of all glory,
To bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
He shook the kingdoms;
The Lord has given a commandment aagainst Canaan
To destroy its strongholds.
O you oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon.
Arise, across over to Cyprus;
There also you will have no rest.”
This people which was not;
Assyria founded it for bwild beasts of the desert.
They set up its towers,
They raised up its palaces,
And brought it to ruin.

Isaiah 23:11
He - The Lord. Shook - Heb. he made the kingdoms to tremble; the neighbouring and confederate kingdoms, who might justly quake at her fall, for the dreadfulness and unexpectedness of the thing; and because Tyre was a bulwark, and a refuge to them. A commandment - Hath put this design into the hearts of her enemies, and given them courage to attempt, and strength to execute it.
