23_ISA_03_01 for , behold , the LORD , the LORD of hosts , Doth take away from Jerusalem And from Judah the stay And the staff , the whole stay of bread , And the whole stay of water .
23_ISA_03_02 the mighty man , And the man of war , the judge , And the prophet , And the prudent , And the ancient ,
23_ISA_03_03 the captain of fifty , And the honourable man , And the counsellor , And the cunning artificer , And the eloquent orator .
23_ISA_03_04 And I will give children [ to be ] their princes , And babes shall rule over them .
23_ISA_03_05 And the people shall be oppressed , every one by another , And every one by his neighbour : the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient , And the base against the honourable .
23_ISA_03_06 when A man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his Father , [ saying ] , thou hast clothing , be thou our ruler , And [ let ] this ruin [ be ] under thy hand :
23_ISA_03_07 in that day shall he swear , saying , I will not be an healer ; for in my house [ Is ] neither bread nor clothing : make me not A ruler of the people .
23_ISA_03_08 for Jerusalem Is ruined , And Judah Is fallen : because their tongue And their doings [ are ] against the LORD , to provoke the eyes of his glory .
23_ISA_03_09 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 rewarded evil unto themselves .
23_ISA_03_10 say ye to the righteous , that [ it shall be ] Well [ with him ] : for they shall eat the fruit of their doings .
23_ISA_03_11 woe unto the wicked ! [ it shall be ] ill [ with him ] : for the reward of his hands shall be given him .
23_ISA_03_12 [ as for ] my people , children [ are ] their oppressors , And women rule over them . O my people , they which lead thee cause [ thee ] to err , And destroy the way of thy paths .
23_ISA_03_13 the LORD standeth up to plead , And standeth to judge the people .
23_ISA_03_14 the LORD will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people , And the princes thereof : for ye have eaten up the vineyard ; the spoil of the poor [ Is ] in your houses .
23_ISA_03_15 what mean ye [ that ] ye beat my people to pieces , And grind the faces of the poor ? saith the LORD God of hosts .
23_ISA_03_16 moreover the LORD saith , because the daughters of Zion are haughty , And walk with stretched forth necks And wanton eyes , walking And mincing [ as ] they go , And making A tinkling with their feet :
23_ISA_03_17 therefore the LORD will smite with A scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion , And the LORD will discover their secret parts .
23_ISA_03_18 in that day the LORD will take away the bravery of [ their ] tinkling ornaments [ about their feet ] , And [ their ] cauls , And [ their ] round tires like the moon ,
23_ISA_03_19 the chains , And the bracelets , And the mufflers ,
23_ISA_03_20 the bonnets , And the ornaments of the legs , And the headbands , And the tablets , And the earrings ,
23_ISA_03_21 the rings , And nose jewels ,
23_ISA_03_22 the changeable suits of apparel , And the mantles , And the wimples , And the crisping pins ,
23_ISA_03_23 the glasses , And the fine linen , And the hoods , And the veils .
23_ISA_03_24 And it shall come to pass , [ that ] instead of sweet smell there shall be stink ; And instead of A girdle A rent ; And instead of Well set hair Baldness ; And instead of A stomacher A girding of sackcloth ; [ And ] burning instead of beauty .
23_ISA_03_25 thy men shall fall by the sword , And thy mighty in the war .
23_ISA_03_26 And her gates shall lament And mourn ; And she [ being ] desolate shall sit upon the ground .
