Isaiah 22:2-4

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

² you who are full of shoutings,
    tumultuous city, exultant town?
Your slain are not slain with the sword
    or dead in battle.
³ All your rulers have fled together,
    without the bow they were captured.
All of you who were found were captured,
    though they had fled far away.^[a]
4 Therefore I said:
“Look away from me,
    let me weep bitter tears;
do not labor to comfort me
    for the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
