Isaiah 29:1-4

Evangelical Heritage Version

Woe to Ariel!^[a] Ariel, the city where David made his camp.
Add one year to another.
Let your cycle of festivals roll on.
² But then I will bring distress to Ariel,
and there will be mourning and lamentation.
Then she will become an altar hearth^[b] to me.
³ I will encamp against you on all sides,
and I will lay siege against you with towers.^[c]
I will raise siege works against you.
⁴ You will be brought so low
that you will speak from the ground.
You will murmur from the dust.
Your voice will be like a ghost from a pit in the ground,
and your speech will whisper from the dust.
