1 This is a message about the Valley of Vision:What is wrong with you people?Why are you on your roofs?
2 This city was a very busy city,full of noise and wild parties.Now your people have been killed,but not with swords,nor did they die in battle.
3 All your leaders ran away together,but they have been captured without using a bow.All you who were capturedtried to run away before the enemy came.
4 So I say, “Don’t look at me.Let me cry loudly.Don’t hurry to comfort meabout the destruction of Jerusalem.”
