Warnings to Jerusalem

29How terrible it will be for you, Jerusalem,

the city where David camped.

Your festivals have continued

year after year.

2I will attack Jerusalem,

and that city will be filled with sadness and crying.

It will be like an altar to me.

Ah, Ariel, Ariel,

the city where David encamped!

Add year to year;

let the feasts run their round.

Yet I will distress Ariel,

and there shall be moaning and lamentation,

and she shall be to me like an Ariel.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

Woe to you, Ariel, Ariel,

the city where David settled!

Add year to year

and let your cycle of festivals go on.

Yet I will besiege Ariel;

she will mourn and lament,

she will be to me like an altar hearth.

and she will be to me like an Ariel.

NLTNew Living Translation

Year after year you celebrate your feasts.

Yet I will bring disaster upon you,

and there will be much weeping and sorrow.

For Jerusalem will become what her name Ariel means—

an altar covered with blood.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

and it shall be to me like an altar hearth.

Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt!

Add ye year to year; let them kill sacrifices.

And there shall be heaviness and sorrow:

And it shall be unto me as Ariel.
