Isaiah 22:3-5
King James Version
3 All thy rulers are fled together, they are bound by the archers: all that are found in thee are bound together, which have fled from far.
4 Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labour not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.
5 For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord God of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains.

Isaiah 22:3-5
New American Standard Bible
3 (A)All your rulers have fled together,
And have been captured [a]without the bow;
All of you who were found were taken captive together,
[b]Though they had fled far away.
4 Therefore I say, “Look away from me,
Let me (B)weep bitterly,
Do not [c]try to comfort me concerning the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
5 (C)For the Lord [d]God of armies has a (D)day of panic, (E)subjugation, and confusion
(F)In the valley of vision,
A breaking down of walls
And a crying [e]to the mountain.
