Isaiah 29:2-4

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

² Yet I will distress Ariel,
    and there shall be moaning and lamentation,
    and Jerusalem^[a] shall be to me like an Ariel.^[b]
3 And like David^[c] I will encamp against you;
    I will besiege you with towers
    and raise siegeworks against you.
⁴ Then deep from the earth you shall speak,
    from low in the dust your words shall come;
your voice shall come from the ground like the voice of a ghost,
    and your speech shall whisper out of the dust.
