Isaiah 29 — Context

Ho! Ariel, Ariel, the town against which David made war; put year to year, let the feasts come round:

And I will send trouble on Ariel, and there will be weeping and cries of grief; and she will be to me as Ariel.

And I will make war on you like David, and you will be shut in by earthworks, and I will make towers round you.

And you will be made low, and your voice will come out of the earth, and your words will be low out of the dust; and your voice will come out of the earth like that of a spirit, making bird-like noises out of the dust.

And the army of your attackers will be like small dust, and all the cruel ones like dry stems gone before the wind; suddenly it will come about.
