Woe
to
Ariel,
to
Ariel,
the
city
[where]
David
dwelt!
add
ye
year
to
year;
let
them
kill
sacrifices.
2
Yet
I
will
distress
Ariel,
and
there
shall
be
heaviness
and
sorrow:
and
it
shall
be
unto
me
as
Ariel.
3
And
I
will
camp
against
thee
round
about,
and
will
lay
siege
against
thee
with
a
mount,
and
I
will
raise
forts
against
thee.
4
And
thou
shalt
be
brought
down,
[and]
shalt
speak
out
of
the
ground,
and
thy
speech
shall
be
low
out
of
the
dust,
and
thy
voice
shall
be,
as
of
one
that
hath
a
familiar
spirit,
out
of
the
ground,
and
thy
speech
shall
whisper
out
of
the
dust.
5
Moreover
the
multitude
of
thy
strangers
shall
be
like
small
dust,
and
the
multitude
of
the
terrible
ones
[shall
be]
as
chaff
that
passeth
away:
yea,
it
shall
be
at
an
instant
suddenly.
6
Thou
shalt
be
visited
of
the
LORD
of
hosts
with
thunder,
and
with
earthquake,
and
great
noise,
with
storm
and
tempest,
and
the
flame
of
devouring
fire.
7
And
the
multitude
of
all
the
nations
that
fight
against
Ariel,
even
all
that
fight
against
her
and
her
munition,
and
that
distress
her,
shall
be
as
a
dream
of
a
night
vision.
8
It
shall
even
be
as
when
an
hungry
[man]
dreameth,
and,
behold,
he
eateth;
but
he
awaketh,
and
his
soul
is
empty:
or
as
when
a
thirsty
man
dreameth,
and,
behold,
he
drinketh;
but
he
awaketh,
and,
behold,
[he
is]
faint,
and
his
soul
hath
appetite:
so
shall
the
multitude
of
all
the
nations
be,
that
fight
against
mount
Zion.
9
Stay
yourselves,
and
wonder;
cry
ye
out,
and
cry:
they
are
drunken,
but
not
with
wine;
they
stagger,
but
not
with
strong
drink.
10
For
the
LORD
hath
poured
out
upon
you
the
spirit
of
deep
sleep,
and
hath
closed
your
eyes:
the
prophets
and
your
rulers,
the
seers
hath
he
covered.
11
And
the
vision
of
all
is
become
unto
you
as
the
words
of
a
book
that
is
sealed,
which
[men]
deliver
to
one
that
is
learned,
saying,
Read
this,
I
pray
thee:
and
he
saith,
I
cannot;
for
it
[is]
sealed:
12
And
the
book
is
delivered
to
him
that
is
not
learned,
saying,
Read
this,
I
pray
thee:
and
he
saith,
I
am
not
learned.
13
Wherefore
the
Lord
said,
Forasmuch
as
this
people
draw
near
[me]
with
their
mouth,
and
with
their
lips
do
honour
me,
but
have
removed
their
heart
far
from
me,
and
their
fear
toward
me
is
taught
by
the
precept
of
men:
14
Therefore,
behold,
I
will
proceed
to
do
a
marvellous
work
among
this
people,
[even]
a
marvellous
work
and
a
wonder:
for
the
wisdom
of
their
wise
[men]
shall
perish,
and
the
understanding
of
their
prudent
[men]
shall
be
hid.
15
Woe
unto
them
that
seek
deep
to
hide
their
counsel
from
the
LORD,
and
their
works
are
in
the
dark,
and
they
say,
Who
seeth
us?
and
who
knoweth
16
Surely
your
turning
of
things
upside
down
shall
be
esteemed
as
the
potter’s
clay:
for
shall
the
work
say
of
him
that
made
it,
He
made
me
not?
or
shall
the
thing
framed
say
of
him
that
framed
it,
He
had
no
understanding?
17
[Is]
it
not
yet
a
very
little
while,
and
Lebanon
shall
be
turned
into
a
fruitful
field,
and
the
fruitful
field
shall
be
esteemed
as
a
forest?
18
And
in
that
day
shall
the
deaf
hear
the
words
of
the
book,
and
the
eyes
of
the
blind
shall
see
out
of
obscurity,
and
out
of
darkness.
19
The
meek
also
shall
increase
[their]
joy
in
the
LORD,
and
the
poor
among
men
shall
rejoice
in
the
Holy
One
of
Israel.
20
For
the
terrible
one
is
brought
to
nought,
and
the
scorner
is
consumed,
and
all
that
watch
for
iniquity
are
cut
off:
21
That
make
a
man
an
offender
for
a
word,
and
lay
a
snare
for
him
that
reproveth
in
the
gate,
and
turn
aside
the
just
for
a
thing
of
nought.
22
Therefore
thus
saith
the
LORD,
who
redeemed
Abraham,
concerning
the
house
of
Jacob,
Jacob
shall
not
now
be
ashamed,
neither
shall
his
face
now
wax
pale.
23
But
when
he
seeth
his
children,
the
work
of
mine
hands,
in
the
midst
of
him,
they
shall
sanctify
my
name,
and
sanctify
the
Holy
One
of
Jacob,
and
shall
fear
the
God
of
Israel.
24
They
also
that
erred
in
spirit
shall
come
to
understanding,
and
they
that
murmured
shall
learn
doctrine.
