Isaiah 23:11

23:11 The Lord stretched out his hand over the sea, ¹ 

he shook kingdoms;

he ²  gave the order

to destroy Canaan’s fortresses. ³ 

[23:11]  ¹ tn Heb “his hand he stretched out over the sea.”

[23:11]  ² tn Heb “the Lord.” For stylistic reasons the pronoun (“he”) has been used in the translation here.

[23:11]  ³ tn Heb “concerning Canaan, to destroy her fortresses.” NIV, NLT translate “Canaan” as “Phoenicia” here.
