Isaiah 23:12
Context23:12 He said,
“You will no longer celebrate,
oppressed 2 virgin daughter Sidon!
Get up, travel to Cyprus,
but you will find no relief there.” 3
1 tn The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.
2 tn Or “violated, raped,” the point being that Daughter Sidon has lost her virginity in the most brutal manner possible.
3 tn Heb “[to the] Kittim, get up, cross over; even there there will be no rest for you.” On “Kittim” see the note on “Cyprus” at v. 1.
