Isaiah 22:3-5
Easy-to-Read Version
3 All your officers ran away together,
but they have all been captured without bows.[a]
All the leaders ran away together,
but they were found and captured.
4 So I say, “Don’t look at me!
Let me cry!
Don’t rush to comfort me
about the destruction of Jerusalem.”
5 The Lord God All-Powerful chose a special day for there to be riots and confusion. People trampled on each other in the Valley of Vision. The city walls were pulled down. People in the valley shouted up at those on the mountain.

let me weep(C) bitterly.
Do not try to console me
over the destruction of my people.”(D)
