22:24. And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house,
divers kinds of vessels, every little vessel, from the vessels of cups

22:25. In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, shall the peg be removed,

spoken it.

Isaias Chapter 23

The destruction of Tyre. It shall be repaired again after seventy years.

23:1. The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of the sea, for the house is
