Isaiah 22:9–11

and you saw that the breaches of the city of David were many. You collected the waters of the lower pool, and you counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall. You made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you did not look to him who did it, or see him who planned it long ago.

You saw that there were many breaches in the walls of the city of David. You collected water from the lower pool. You counted the houses of Jerusalem so that you could tear them down to fortify the wall. You made a reservoir between the walls for the water of the ancient pool, but you did not look to the one who made it, or consider the one who created it long ago.

You inspect the breaks in the walls of Jerusalem.

You store up water in the lower pool.

You survey the houses and tear some down

for stone to strengthen the walls.

Between the city walls, you build a reservoir

for water from the old pool.

But you never ask for help from the One who did all this.

You never considered the One who planned this long ago.

and you saw that the breaches in the walls of the city of David were many,

and you gathered the waters of the lower pool.

And you counted the houses of Jerusalem,

and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.

And you made a reservoir between the walls for the waters of the old pool,

but you did not look to its maker,

and you did not see the one who created it long ago.

Ye have seen also the breaches of the city of David, that they are many:

And ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool.

And ye have numbered the houses of Jerusalem,

And the houses have ye broken down to fortify the wall.

Ye made also a ditch between the two walls for the water of the old pool:

But ye have not looked unto the maker thereof,

Neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.
