1. Ah, Ariel, Ariel,the city where David encamped!Add year to year;let the feasts run their round.
2. Yet I will distress Ariel,and there shall be moaning and lamentation,and she shall be to me like an Ariel.
3. And I will encamp against you all around,and will besiege you with towersand I will raise siegeworks against you.
4. And you will be brought low; from the earth you shall speak,and from the dust your speech will be bowed down;your voice shall come from the ground like the voice of a ghost,and from the dust your speech shall whisper.
5. But the multitude of your foreign foes shall be like small dust,and the multitude of the ruthless like passing chaff. And in an instant, suddenly,
6. you will be visited by the Lord of hostswith thunder and with earthquake and great noise,with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.
