Isaiah 29:2

Woe To Jerusalem

¹ Woe (judgment is coming) to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David [once] camped!
Add yet another year; let the feasts run their course [but only one year more].
² 
Then I will harass Ariel,
And she will be a city of mourning and lamenting (crying out in grief)
Yet she will be like an Ariel [an altar hearth] to Me.
³
I will camp against you and encircle you,
And I will hem you in with siege works,
And I will raise fortifications against you.
