1 THE prophecy concerning the valley of vision. What do you see here, that you are all gone up to the housetops? 2 The city is full of tumult, the mighty city is full of noise; your slain men are not slain with the sword nor dead in battle. 3 All your princes are fled together, they are surrounded by the archers; all that were found in you are bound together; they have fled to far off places. 4 Therefore said I, Leave me alone, I will weep bitterly; trouble not yourself to comfort me, because of the destruction of the daughter of my people. 5 For it is a day of trouble and of treading down and of weeping before the LORD God of hosts in the valley of vision; they have surveyed the walls, and shouted upon the mountains. 6 And Elam bore the quiver with the chariots of men and horsemen, and the shields were seen on the wall. 7 And it shall come to pass that your choicest valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gates.
