Isaiah 29:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ And I will make a circle round about thee, and will cast up a rampart against thee, and raise up bulwarks to besiege thee.

⁴ Thou shalt be brought down, thou shalt speak out of the earth, and thy speech shall be heard out of the ground: and thy voice shall be from the earth like that of the python, and out of the ground thy speech shall mutter.

⁵ And the multitude of them that fan thee, shall be like small dust: and as ashes passing away, the multitude of them that have prevailed against thee.
