against all the ships from Tarshish, and against all their impressive watercraft.

A message concerning Tyre. "Wail, you ships of Tarshish, for Tyre is destroyed and is without house or harbor! From the land of Cyprus it was revealed to them.

"You who are crossing over to Tarshish Wail, you inhabitants of the coast!

"Cultivate your land like the Nile, you daughter of Tarshish; for there is no longer a harbor.

Wail, you ships of Tarshish, because your stronghold is destroyed!"

For the coastlands will look to me, with the ships of Tarshish in the lead, to bring my children from far away, their silver and gold with them, to the name of the LORD your God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he has glorified you.

"I will put up signs among them, and from them I will send survivors to the nations to Tarshish, Libya, and Lydia, (who draw the bow), to Tubal and Greece, to the far off coastlands that have not heard of my fame or seen my glory. Then they will proclaim my glory among the nations.
