And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish
gate, and an
howling from the second, and a great
crashing from the hills.
On that day,” declares the LORD, “a cry will go up from the Fish
Gate, a
wail from the Second District, and a loud
crashing from the hills.
