But days shall come in thee [or shall come to thee], and thine enemies shall environ thee with a pale, and they shall go about thee, and make thee strait on all sides,
A little city, and few men therein; a great king came against it, and compassed it with pales, and he builded strongholds, either engines, by compass; and [the] besieging was made perfect.
Therefore the Lord saith these things of the king of Assyrians, He shall not enter into this city, and he shall not shoot there an arrow; and a shield shall not occupy it, and he shall not send [an heap of] earth in the compass thereof.
He shall slay by sword thy daughters that be in the field, and he shall encompass thee with strongholds, and he shall bear together [the heap of] earth in compass. And he shall raise a shield against thee,
And thou shalt ordain besieging against that Jerusalem; and thou shalt build strongholds, and thou shalt bear together [an heap of] earth, and thou shalt give hosts of battle against it, and thou shalt set engines by compass.
