Isaiah 3:1
|
|
For, behold, the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, doth
take away from Jerusalem and from Judah stay and staff, the whole stay of bread,
and the whole stay of water; |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:2 |
|
the mighty man, and the man of war; the judge,
and the prophet, and the diviner, and the elder; |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:3 |
|
the captain of fifty, and the honorable man,
and the counsellor, and the expert artificer, and the skilful enchanter. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:4 |

And I will give children to be their princes,
and babes shall rule over them. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:5 |

And the people shall be oppressed, every one
by another, and every one by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly
against the old man, and the base against the honorable. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:6 |
|
When a man shall take hold of his brother in
the house of his father, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let
this ruin be under thy hand; |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:7 |
|
in that day shall he lift up his voice, saying,
I will not be a healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: ye shall
not make me ruler of the people. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:8 |
|
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen;
because their tongue and their doings are against Jehovah, to provoke the eyes
of his glory. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:9 |
|
The show of their countenance doth witness against
them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul!
for they have done evil unto themselves. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:10 |
|
Say ye of the righteous, that it shall be well
with him; for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:11 |
|
Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him;
for what his hands have done shall be done unto him. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:12 |
|
As for my people, children are their oppressors,
and women rule over them. O my people, they that lead thee cause thee to err,
and destroy the way of thy paths. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:13 |
|
Jehovah standeth up to contend, and standeth
to judge the peoples. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:14 |
|
Jehovah will enter into judgment with the elders
of his people, and the princes thereof: It is ye that have eaten up the vineyard;
the spoil of the poor is in your houses: |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:15 |
|
what mean ye that ye crush my people, and grind
the face of the poor? saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:16 |
|
Moreover Jehovah said, Because the daughters
of Zion are haughty, and walk with outstretched necks and wanton eyes, walking
and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet; |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:17 |
|
therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the
crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and Jehovah will lay bare their secret
parts. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:18 |
|
In that day the Lord will take away the beauty
of their anklets, and the cauls, and the crescents; |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:19 |
|
the pendants, and the bracelets, and the mufflers;
|
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:20 |
|
the headtires, and the ankle chains, and the
sashes, and the perfume-boxes, and the amulets; |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:21 |
|
the rings, and the nose-jewels; |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:22 |
|
the festival robes, and the mantles, and the
shawls, and the satchels; |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:23 |
|
the hand-mirrors, and the fine linen, and the
turbans, and the veils. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:24 |
|
And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet
spices there shall be rottenness; and instead of a girdle, a rope; and instead
of well set hair, baldness; and instead of a robe, a girding of sackcloth; branding
instead of beauty. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:25 |
|
Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty
in the war. |
|
|
|
Isaiah 3:26 |
|
And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she
shall be desolate and sit upon the ground. |
