1. “Run for cover, Benjaminites,out of Jerusalem!Sound the ram’s horn in Tekoa; raise a smoke signal over Beth-haccherem, for disaster threatens from the north, even great destruction.
2. Though she is beautiful and delicate,I will destroy Daughter Zion.
3. Shepherds and their flocks will come against her;they will pitch their tents all around her. Each will pasture his own portion.
4. Set them apart for war against her;rise up, let’s attack at noon.Woe to us, for the day is passing;the evening shadows grow long.
