1 Wo to Ariel, Ariel, the city David encamped in! add ye year upon year; the festivals shall run their circle. 2 And I pressed upon Ariel, and there was sorrow and sighing, and it was to me as Ariel. 3 And I encamped as a circle upon thee, and I pressed upon thee with a garrison, and I raised intrenchments against thee. 4 And thou being brought down, thou shalt speak from the earth, and thy word shall be depressed out of the dust, and thy voice as a necromancer from the earth, and thy saying Shall peep from the dust. 5 And the multitude of thy strangers was as the thin dust, and Its the chaff passing away, the multitude of the terrible ones: and it was at a moment suddenly. 6 From Jehovah of armies shalt thou be reviewed, with thunder and with shaking, and a great voice, whirlwind and storm, and the flames of consuming fire. 7 And it was as a dream of a vision of the night, the multitude of all the nations warring against Ariel and all warring against her and her fastnesses, and those pressing upon her. 8 And it was as when the hungry shall dream, and behold, he ate; and he awoke and his soul was empty: and as when the thirsty shall dream, and behold, he drank, and he awoke, and behold, he fainted, and his soul desired: thus shall be the multitude of all the nations warring against mount Zion.
