you town so full of commotion, you city of tumult and revelry? Your slain were not killed by the sword, nor did they die in battle.

Why is your town so full of noise? Why is your city so full of the sound of wild parties? Those among you who died weren’t killed by swords. They didn’t die in battle.

The whole city is in a terrible uproar. What do I see in this reveling city? Bodies are lying everywhere, killed not in battle but by famine and disease.

The noisy city, the jubilant town, is filled with celebration. Your dead did not die by the sword; they were not killed in battle.

You who were full of noise, You tumultuous town, you jubilant city; Your dead were not killed with the sword, Nor did they die in battle.

for the soil of my people growing up in thorns and briers, yes, for all the joyous houses in the exultant city.

Is this your exultant city whose origin is from days of old, whose feet carried her to settle far away?

If I go out into the field, behold, those pierced by the sword! And if I enter the city, behold, the diseases of famine! For both prophet and priest ply their trade through the land and have no knowledge.’”

Look, O Lord, and see! With whom have you dealt thus? Should women eat the fruit of their womb, the children of their tender care? Should priest and prophet be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord?

“ Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come into this city or shoot an arrow there or come before it with a shield or cast up a siege mound against it.

Happier were the victims of the sword than the victims of hunger, who wasted away, pierced by lack of the fruits of the field.The hands of compassionate women have boiled their own children; they became their food during the destruction of the daughter of my people.

In that day the Lord God of hosts called for weeping and mourning, for baldness and wearing sackcloth;and behold, joy and gladness, killing oxen and slaughtering sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine.“ Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”

O you who put far away the day of disaster and bring near the seat of violence?“ Woe to those who lie on beds of ivory and stretch themselves out on their couches, and eat lambs from the flock and calves from the midst of the stall,who sing idle songs to the sound of the harp and like David invent for themselves instruments of music,who drink wine in bowls and anoint themselves with the finest oils, but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph!

And the angel of the Lord went out and struck down 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians. And when people arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies.

On the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was so severe in the city that there was no food for the people of the land.

“ Thus says the Lord: He who stays in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence, but he who goes out to the Chaldeans shall live. He shall have his life as a prize of war, and live.
