The Lord Will Judge Jerusalem This is an oracle about the Valley of Vision: What is the reason that all of you go up to the rooftops?
The noisy city is full of raucous sounds; the town is filled with revelry. Your slain were not cut down by the sword; they did not die in battle.
All your leaders ran away together– they fled to a distant place; all your refugees were captured together– they were captured without a single arrow being shot.
So I say:“Don’t look at me! I am weeping bitterly. Don’t try to console me concerning the destruction of my defenseless people.”
For the Sovereign LORD of Heaven’s Armies, has planned a day of panic, defeat, and confusion. In the Valley of Vision people shout and cry out to the hill.
The Elamites picked up the quiver, and came with chariots and horsemen; the men of Kir prepared the shield.
Your very best valleys were full of chariots; horsemen confidently took their positions at the gate.
