forgotten, seventy years, according to the days of one king: but after
seventy years, there shall be unto Tyre as the song of a harlot.

23:16. Take a harp, go about the city, harlot that hast been forgotten:
sing well, sing many a song, that thou mayst be remembered.

23:17. And it shall come to pass after seventy years, that the Lord will
visit Tyre, and will bring her back again to her traffic: and she shall
commit fornication again with all the kingdoms of the world upon the
face of the earth.

23:18. And her merchandise and her hire shall be sanctified to the Lord:
they shall not be kept in store, nor laid up: for her merchandise shall
be for them that shall dwell before the Lord, that they may eat unto
fulness, and be clothed for a continuance.

24:6. Therefore shall a curse devour the earth, and the inhabitants

24:8. The mirth of timbrels hath ceased, the noise of them that rejoice
