Isaiah 22:3-5

International Children’s Bible

³ All your leaders ran away together.
    But they all have been captured without using a bow.
All you who were captured
    tried to run away before the enemy came near.
⁴ So I say, “Don’t look at me.
    Let me cry loudly.
Don’t hurry to comfort me
    about the destruction of Jerusalem.”
⁵ The Master, the Lord of heaven’s armies, has chosen a special day.
    There will be riots and confusion.
    People will trample each other in the Valley of Vision.
The city walls will be knocked down.
    The people will cry out to the mountain.
