Isaiah 29:4
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
You will be brought low, you will speak from the ground, and out of the dust your words will be muffled. Your voice will be like a spirit from the ground; your speech will whisper out of the dust.
In context
2 And I will constrain Ariel, and there will be mourning and lamentation; she will be like an altar hearth before Me.
3 I will camp in a circle around you; I will besiege you with towers and set up siege works against you.
4 You will be brought low, you will speak from the ground, and out of the dust your words will be muffled. Your voice will be like a spirit from the ground; your speech will whisper out of the dust.
5 But your many foes will be like fine dust, the multitude of the ruthless like blowing chaff. Then suddenly, in an instant,
6 you will be visited by the LORD of Hosts with thunder and earthquake and loud noise, with windstorm and tempest and consuming flame of fire.
