Context Reading
16The portion of Jacob is not like these;for he is the maker of all things;and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance.Yahweh of Armies is his name. 17Gather up your wares out of the land,you who live under siege. 18For Yahweh says,“Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time,and will distress them, that they may feel it.” 19Woe is me because of my injury!My wound is serious;but I said,“Truly this is my grief, and I must bear it.” 20My tent has been destroyed,and all my cords are broken.My children have gone away from me, and they are no more.There is no one to spread my tent any more,to set up my curtains.
