Isaiah 22:1-4
1
A Prophecy About Jerusalem
An oracle concerning the Valley of Vision:
What troubles you now,
that you have all gone up on the roofs,
2
O town full of commotion,
O city of tumult and revelry?
Your slain were not killed by the sword,
nor did they die in battle.
3
All your leaders have fled together;
they have been captured without using the bow.
All you who were caught were taken prisoner together,
having fled while the enemy was still far away.
4
Therefore I said, “Turn away from me;
let me weep bitterly.
Do not try to console me
over the destruction of my people.”
