Woe to you, Ariel, Ariel, the city where David settled! Add year to year and let your cycle of festivals go on.

Jerusalem, how terrible it will be for you! Ariel, you are the city where David made his home. The years will come and go. Keep on celebrating your regular feasts.

Ah, Ariel, Ariel, the city where David encamped! Add year to year; let the feasts run their round.

“ What sorrow awaits Ariel, the City of David. Year after year you celebrate your feasts.

Woe to Ariel, Ariel, the city where David camped! Continue year after year; let the festivals recur.

Woe, Ariel, Ariel the city where David once camped! Add year to year, keep your feasts on schedule.

“ Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt! Add year to year; Let feasts come around.

Ho Ariel, Ariel, the city where David encamped! add ye year to year; let the feasts come round:

Woe to Ariel, Ariel, the city where David camped! Continue year after year; let the festivals recur.

Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city[ where] David dwelt! add ye year to year; let them kill sacrifices.

Ariel is as good as dead– Ariel, the town David besieged! Keep observing your annual rituals, celebrate your festivals on schedule.

Woe to Ariel! Ariel, the city where David encamped! Add year to year; let the feasts come around;

David then took up residence in the fortress and called it the City of David. He built up the area around it, from the terraces inward. (niv)

“ Go to Bethel and sin; go to Gilgal and sin yet more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three years.Burn leavened bread as a thank offering and brag about your freewill offerings— boast about them, you Israelites, for this is what you love to do,” declares the Sovereign Lord. (niv)

They will not pour out wine offerings to the Lord, nor will their sacrifices please him. Such sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat them will be unclean. This food will be for themselves; it will not come into the temple of the Lord. (niv)

Above that, the altar hearth is four cubits high, and four horns project upward from the hearth.The altar hearth is square, twelve cubits long and twelve cubits wide. (niv)

But whoever sacrifices a bull is like one who kills a person, and whoever offers a lamb is like one who breaks a dog’s neck; whoever makes a grain offering is like one who presents pig’s blood, and whoever burns memorial incense is like one who worships an idol. They have chosen their own ways, and they delight in their abominations; (niv)

With what shall I come before the Lord and bow down before the exalted God? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old?Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousand rivers of olive oil? Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? (niv)

Though they offer sacrifices as gifts to me, and though they eat the meat, the Lord is not pleased with them. Now he will remember their wickedness and punish their sins: They will return to Egypt. (niv)

When they go with their flocks and herds to seek the Lord, they will not find him; he has withdrawn himself from them. (niv)

The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming— not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship. (niv)

“ The multitude of your sacrifices— what are they to me?” says the Lord.“ I have more than enough of burnt offerings, of rams and the fat of fattened animals; I have no pleasure in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats.When you come to appear before me, who has asked this of you, this trampling of my courts?Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations— I cannot bear your worthless assemblies.Your New Moon feasts and your appointed festivals I hate with all my being. They have become a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them.When you spread out your hands in prayer, I hide my eyes from you; even when you offer many prayers, I am not listening. Your hands are full of blood! (niv)

The Lord, the Lord Almighty, called you on that day to weep and to wail, to tear out your hair and put on sackcloth.But see, there is joy and revelry, slaughtering of cattle and killing of sheep, eating of meat and drinking of wine!“ Let us eat and drink,” you say,“ for tomorrow we die!” (niv)

“‘ This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Go ahead, add your burnt offerings to your other sacrifices and eat the meat yourselves! (niv)

Their stronghold will fall because of terror; at the sight of the battle standard their commanders will panic,” declares the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, whose furnace is in Jerusalem. (niv)
