Yeshayah 22:1-6 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. The massa (burden) of the Gey Chizayon (Valley of Vision). What is it to thee now, that thou art all gone up to the rooftops?

2. Thou that art full of noise, a tumultuous city, exultant city; thy slain men are not slain with the cherev, nor dead in milchamah.

3. All thy rulers are fled together, they are captured by the keshet (bow); all that are found in thee are captured together, which have fled far away.

4. Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labor not to comfort me, because of the shod (catastrophe) of Bat Ami.

5. For it is a day of tumult, and of treading down, and of confusion by Adonoi Hashem Tzva'os in the Gey Chizayon (valley of vision), battering down the walls, and of crying to the har.

6. And Elam bore the ashpah (quiver) with chariots of adam and parashim, and Kir uncovered the mogen (shield).
