Isaiah 22:2-4

International Children’s Bible

² This city was a very busy city.
    It was full of noise and wild parties.
But your people have been killed,
    but not with swords.
    They did not die in battle.
³ All your leaders ran away together.
    But they all have been captured without using a bow.
All you who were captured
    tried to run away before the enemy came near.
⁴ So I say, “Don’t look at me.
    Let me cry loudly.
Don’t hurry to comfort me
    about the destruction of Jerusalem.”
