2 (A)And put siege works against it, (B)and build a siege wall against it, (C)and cast up a mound against it. Set camps also against it, (D)and plant battering rams against it all round. 3 And you, take an iron griddle, and place it as an iron wall between you and the city; (E)and set your face towards it, (F)and let it be in a state of siege, and press the siege against it. This is (G)a sign for the house of Israel.
