Jerusalem Is Warned

1 Woe, O 1Ariel, 1Ariel the city where David once acamped!

Add year to year, 2bobserve your feasts on schedule.

2 I will bring distress to Ariel,

And she will be a city of lamenting and amourning;

And she will be like an Ariel to me.

3 I will acamp against you 1encircling you,

And I will set siegeworks against you,

And I will raise up battle towers against you.

4 Then you will abe brought low;

From the earth you will speak,

And from the dust where you are prostrate

Your words will come.

Your voice will also be like that of a 1spirit from the ground,

And your speech will whisper from the dust.

5 But the multitude of your 1enemies will become like fine adust,

And the multitude of the bruthless ones like the chaff which 2blows away;

And it will happen cinstantly, suddenly.

6 From the Lord of hosts you will be apunished with bthunder and earthquake and loud noise,

With whirlwind and tempest and the flame of a consuming fire.
