Isaiah 29:2 Douay-Rheims

And I will make a trench about Ariel, and it shall be in sorrow and mourning, and it shall be to me as Ariel.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

To Ariel. To Jerusalem. תאניה ואניה Heaviness and sorrow. Comp. ואנו and they shall mourn (19:8). According to others, A waste place, the two words being derived from אנה where; the meaning of the phrase is, that only her place will be left. והיתה לי כאריאל And it shall be unto me as Ariel, as the altar which is desolate of sacrifices, or like an altar, because the inhabitants will be slaughtered.
