Isaiah 29:2-4
New Century Version
2 I will attack Jerusalem,
and that city will be filled with sadness and crying.
It will be like an altar to me.
3 I will put armies all around you, Jerusalem;
I will surround you with towers
and with devices to attack you.
4 You will be pulled down and will speak from the ground;
I will hear your voice rising from the ground.
It will sound like the voice of a ghost;
your words will come like a whisper from the dirt.

and set up my siege works(E) against you.

your speech will mumble(F) out of the dust.(G)
Your voice will come ghostlike(H) from the earth;
