New Testament

Isaiah 3:17-26 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

17. Therefore the Lord will bring sores on the heads of the women of Zion;the Lord will make their scalps bald.’

18. In that day the Lord will snatch away their finery: the bangles and headbands and crescent necklaces,

19. the earrings and bracelets and veils,

20. the head-dresses and anklets and sashes, the perfume bottles and charms,

21. the signet rings and nose rings,

22. the fine robes and the capes and cloaks, the purses

23. and mirrors, and the linen garments and tiaras and shawls.

24. Instead of fragrance there will be a stench;instead of a sash, a rope;instead of well-dressed hair, baldness;instead of fine clothing, sackcloth;instead of beauty, branding.

25. Your men will fall by the sword,your warriors in battle.

26. The gates of Zion will lament and mourn;destitute, she will sit on the ground.
