29 Oh, Ariel, Ariel,
    town where David encamped!
Year by year, let the festivals come around—
²     but I will oppress Ariel.
There will be mourning and lamentation;
    she will be like an Ariel to me.
³ I will surround you like a wall,
    and I will lay a siege against you with assault towers,
    and I will raise up siegeworks against you.
⁴ You will be brought down;
    from the ground you will speak;
    from low in the dust your speech will come.
Your voice will be like a ghost’s from the earth;
    from the dust your words will whisper.

⁶ the Lord of heavenly forces will come to you with thunder, earthquake, and a mighty voice,
    with whirlwind, tempest, and flames of devouring fire.
