isa 29.4
Judgment and Deliverance of Jerusalem
1 Ah! Ariel, Ariel,[a]
city where David encamped!
Let year follow year,
and feast follow feast,
2 But I will bring distress upon Ariel,
and there will be mourning and moaning.
You shall be to me like Ariel:
3 I will encamp like David against you;
I will circle you with outposts
and set up siege works against you.
4 You shall speak from beneath the earth,
and from the dust below, your words shall come.
Your voice shall be that of a ghost from the earth,
and your words shall whisper from the dust.
Isaiah 44:23New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 Raise a glad cry, you heavens—the Lord has acted!
Shout, you depths of the earth.
Break forth, mountains, into song,
forest, with all your trees.
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
shows his glory through Israel.
isa 45.19 I have not spoken in secret
from some place in the land of darkness,I have not said to the descendants of Jacob,
“Look for me in an empty waste.”
I, the Lord, promise justice,
I declare what is right.
jer 17.13 Jeremiah 17:13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
13 O Hope of Israel, Lord!
all who forsake you shall be put to shame;
The rebels shall be enrolled in the netherworld;
they have forsaken the Lord, source of living waters.
ezekiel 26.20 Ezekiel 26:20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
20 Then I will thrust you down
with those who go down to the pit,[a]
to those of the bygone age;
I will make you dwell in the netherworld,
in the everlasting ruins,
with those who have gone down to the pit,
So you will never return
or have a place in the land of the living.
ezekil 31.14 Ezekiel 31:14
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 This has happened so no well-watered tree
will gain such lofty height,
or lift its crown to the clouds.
Not one of those fed by water
will tower in height over the rest.
For all of them are destined for death,
for the underworld, among mere mortals,
with those who go down to the pit.
ezekil 31.16 Ezekiel 31:16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
16 At the sound of its fall,
I made nations shudder,
When I cast it down to Sheol
with those who go down to the pit.
In the underworld
all the trees of Eden took comfort:
Lebanon’s choicest and best,
all that were fed by the waters.
