Isaiah 29:1-2
International Standard Version
Judgment is Coming to Jerusalem
29 “How terrible it will be for you, Aruel, Aruel,[a]
the city where David encamped!
Year after year,
let your festivals run their cycle.

and there will be sorrow and mourning;
she will become to me like an altar fireplace.[c]
