For, behold
, the Lord, the
LORD
of hosts, doth
take
away
from Jerusalem and from Judah the

staff, the
whole
stay of bread, and the
whole
stay of water.
For, lo
, the Lord, Jehovah
of Hosts, Is
turning
aside
from Jerusalem ,
And from Judah ,
stay and staff, Every
stay of bread, and every
stay of water.
The
mighty
man,
and the
man of war, the
judge ,
and the
prophet, and the

And I will
give
children
to
be
their princes
, and babes
shall
rule over them.
And I have
made
youths
their heads
, And sucklings
rule over them.
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
.
And the people hath
exacted
--
man
upon
man
, Even
a
man
on
his neighbour ,
Enlarge
themselves
do
the youths
against the aged
, And the lightly
esteemed
against the honoured
.
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 :
When one
layeth
hold on
his brother ,
`
Of '
the house of his father, `by'
the
garment
, `Come
, a
ruler thou
art
to
us
, And this ruin `is'
under thy hand .'
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.
He
lifteth
up,
in that day, saying :
`
I am
not a
binder
up,
And
in my house is neither bread nor garment,
Ye
do
not
make me a ruler of the people. '
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.
For stumbled
hath
Jerusalem, and Judah hath
fallen ,
For
their tongue and their doings `
are '
against Jehovah
, To provoke the eyes of His glory.
The shew
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.
The appearance
of their faces
witnessed
against them ,
And their sin ,
as Sodom, they declared,
They
have
not hidden!
Wo
to
their soul ,
For they have done
to
themselves evil
.
Say ye to the righteous, that it shall
be
well
with
him:
for
they
shall
eat
the fruit of their doings.
Say ye to the righteous, that `
it is'
good,
Because
the fruit of their doings they
eat

shall
be
ill
with
him:
for
the reward
of his hands
shall
be
given
him.
Wo
to
the wicked --
evil,
Because
the deed
of his hand
is
done
to
him.
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.
My people --
its
exactors
`
are '
sucklings
, And women have
ruled
over it
. My people --
thy
eulogists
are
causing
to err, And the way of thy paths swallowed
up
.
The
LORD
standeth
up to plead, and standeth
to judge the people
.
Jehovah
hath
stood
up to plead, And He
is
standing
to judge the peoples
.
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.
Jehovah
into judgment doth
enter
With elders
of His people, and its
heads
: `And
ye ,
ye
have consumed
the vineyard ,
Plunder
of the poor `
is '
in your houses.
What mean
ye
that
ye beat
my people to
pieces
, and grind
the faces of the poor ?
saith
the Lord GOD
of hosts .
What --
to
you?
ye bruise
My people, And the faces of the poor ye
grind.'
An
affirmation
of
the Lord ,
Jehovah
of Hosts ,
And
Jehovah
saith:
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 :
`
Because that
daughters of Zion have
been
haughty, And they
walk stretching
out
the
neck,
And deceiving
`with'
the
eyes, Walking and mincing they go, And with their feet they
make
a
tinkling,
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
.
The Lord also
hath
scabbed
The crown of the head of daughters of Zion, And Jehovah
their simplicity
exposeth
.
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
,
In that day doth
the Lord turn
aside
The beauty
of the
tinkling ornaments, And of
the
embroidered
works
, And of
the
round tires like moons
,
The chains
, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,
Of
the drops
, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,
The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands
, and the tablets
, and the earrings
,
Of
the bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, And of
the bands
, And of
the perfume
boxes
, and the amulets
,
The rings
, and nose jewels
,
Of
the seals
, and of
the
nose -rings
,
The
changeable
suits
of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples
, and the crisping
pins
,
Of the
costly
apparel, and of
the mantles, And of
the coverings
, and of
the purses
,
The glasses
, and the fine
linen, and the hoods, and the vails .
Of
the mirrors
, and of
the linen garments
, And of
the hoods, and of
the vails ,
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
.
And it hath
been
, instead of spice
is
muck,
And instead of a girdle ,
a rope,
And instead of curled
work,
baldness ,
And instead of a stomacher a girdle
of sackcloth.
Thy men shall
fall
by the
sword, and thy mighty
in the
war
.
For
instead
of
glory,
thy men by sword do
fall
, And thy might
in battle
.
And her
gates
shall
lament
and
mourn;
and she being
desolate
shall
sit
upon
the ground.
And lamented
and mourned
have
her
openings,
Yea,
she hath
been
emptied,
on
the earth
she
sitteth!
