Isaiah 22:8-11
New King James Version
Isaiah 22:8-11
New King James Version
8 (A)He removed the [a]protection of Judah.
You looked in that day to the armor (B)of the House of the Forest;
9 (C)You also saw the [b]damage to the city of David,
That it was great;
And you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
10 You numbered the houses of Jerusalem,
And the houses you broke down
To fortify the wall.
11 (D)You also made a reservoir between the two walls
For the water of the old (E)pool.
But you did not look to its Maker,
Nor did you have respect for Him who fashioned it long ago.
