Isaiah 22:4
Berean Standard Bible
Therefore I said, “Turn away from me, let me weep bitterly! Do not try to console me over the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
Context
2O city of commotion,
O town of revelry?
Your slain did not die by the sword,
nor were they killed in battle. 3All your rulers have fled together,
captured without a bow.
All your fugitives were captured together,
having fled to a distant place. 4Therefore I said,
“Turn away from me, let me weep bitterly!
Do not try to console me
over the destruction of the daughter of my people.” 5For the Lord GOD of Hosts has set a day
of tumult and trampling and confusion in the Valley of Vision—
of breaking down the walls
and crying to the mountains. 6Elam takes up a quiver, with chariots and horsemen,
and Kir uncovers the shield.
