Prepare for war

Escape, people of Benjamin,
    get out of Jerusalem!
Blow the trumpet in Tekoa,
    sound the alarm in Beth-haccherem;
        for disaster looms from the north,
        massive devastation.
You are like a lovely pasture, Daughter Zion.[a]
    Shepherds come to her with their flocks.
    They pitch their tents around her
        and graze in their place.
