Isaiah 22:12
And in that day did the Lord God of hosts call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth: (Isaiah 22:12)
Call to weeping.
 The danger confronting the city should lead the people to repentance and prayer. This was true of Hezekiah (ch. 37:1-4, 15-20). In view of the coming of the day of the Lord, Joel similarly called upon the people to turn to God with fasting and weeping, that He might be gracious to them (Joel 2:12-17).
