Isaiah 29:3-5
The Voice
3 I will surround you, enclose you, cut you off.
I will isolate you from aid or reprieve;
I will attack the city walls with towers and siege works.
4 That will humble you so low, you’ll speak from the earth itself.
And when you do, your voice will issue from the very dust where you lie;
Your voice will rise from the ground like the voice of a ghost,
like a soft whisper from the earth.
5 But in an instant your ruthless enemies, who seem too many to count,
will become as fluttering dust, as wind-driven chaff.
They will be blown away in the snap of a finger.
Isaiah 29:3-5
New International Version
3 I will encamp against you on all sides;
I will encircle(A) you with towers
and set up my siege works(B) against you.
4 Brought low, you will speak from the ground;
your speech will mumble(C) out of the dust.(D)
Your voice will come ghostlike(E) from the earth;
out of the dust your speech will whisper.(F)
