Isaiah 22:2-4

Evangelical Heritage Version

² Why is the town full of shouting?
Why is the joyful city full of turmoil?
Your fallen were not run through with the sword.
Your dead did not fall in battle.
³ All your rulers fled together,
captured by archers without bows.
All your refugees were caught together.
They had fled far away.
⁴ That is why I said,
“Look away from me.
I will weep bitterly.
Do not try to comfort me over the destruction of the daughter
    of my people.”^[a]
