Proclamation Against Jerusalem
1 The1 burden against the Valley of Vision.
What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops,
What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops,
2 You who a1re full of noise,
A tumultuous city, aa joyous city?
Your slain men are not slain with the sword,
Nor dead in battle.
A tumultuous city, aa joyous city?
Your slain men are not slain with the sword,
Nor dead in battle.
3 All your rulers have fled together;
They are captured by the archers.
All who are found in you are bound together;
They have fled from afar.
They are captured by the archers.
All who are found in you are bound together;
They have fled from afar.
4 Therefore I said, “Look away from me,
aI will weep bitterly;
Do not labor to comfort me
Because of the plundering of the daughter of my people.”
aI will weep bitterly;
Do not labor to comfort me
Because of the plundering of the daughter of my people.”
5 aFor it is a day of trouble and treading down and perplexity
bBy the Lord God of hosts
In the Valley of Vision—
Breaking down the walls
And of crying to the mountain.
bBy the Lord God of hosts
In the Valley of Vision—
Breaking down the walls
And of crying to the mountain.
7 It shall come to pass that your choicest valleys
Shall be full of chariots,
And the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.
Shall be full of chariots,
And the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.
