Isaiah 3:16-26 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

16. Moreover the Lord said, “Because the daughters of Zion are arrogant,and walk with outstretched necks and flirting eyes,walking to trip as they go,jingling ornaments on their feet;

17. therefore the Lord brings sores on the crown of the head of the women of Zion,and the Lord will make their scalps bald.”

18. In that day the Lord will take away the beauty of their anklets, the headbands, the crescent necklaces,

19. the earrings, the bracelets, the veils,

20. the headdresses, the ankle chains, the sashes, the perfume containers, the charms,

21. the signet rings, the nose rings,

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

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

24. It shall happen that instead of sweet spices, there shall be rottenness;instead of a belt, a rope;instead of well set hair, baldness;instead of a robe, a wearing of sackcloth;and branding instead of beauty.

25. Your men shall fall by the sword,and your mighty in the war.

26. Her gates shall lament and mourn;and she shall be desolate and sit on the ground.
