Isaiah Chapter 3The Webster Bible2: The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient, 3: The captain of fifty, and the honorable man, and the counselor, and the skillful artificer, and the eloquent orator. 4: And I will give children [to be] their princes, and babes shall rule over them. 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 elder, and the base against the honorable. 6: 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: 7: In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be a healer; for in my house [is] neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people. 8: 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. 9: The show of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide [it] not. Woe to their soul! for they have rewarded evil to themselves. 10: Say ye to the righteous, that [it shall be] well [with him]: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. 11: Woe to the wicked! [it shall be] ill [with him]: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. 12: [As for] my people, children [are] their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they who lead thee cause [thee] to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. 13: The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people. 14: The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and with their princes: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor [is] in your houses. 15: What mean ye [that] ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord GOD of hosts. 16: Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with extended necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing [as] they go, and making a tinkling with their feet: 17: Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will uncover their secret parts. 18: In that day the Lord will take away the show of [their] tinkling ornaments [about their feet], and [their] cauls, and [their] round tires like the moon. 19: The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers, 20: The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the head-bands, and the tablets, and the ear-rings, 21: The rings, and nose-jewels, 22: The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping-pins, 23: The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails. 24: And it shall come to pass, [that] instead of sweet smell there shall be an offensive odor; 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. 25: Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war. 26: And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she [being] desolate, shall sit upon the ground.
