Isaiah 3:15-17
Lexham English Bible
15 Why[a] do you crush my people
and grind the face of the poor?”
declares[b] the Lord Yahweh of hosts.
The Pride of Jerusalem’s Women
16 And Yahweh said: “Because[c] the daughters of Zion are haughty,
and they walk with outstretched neck,
and they give flirting glances with their eyes,
mincing along as they go,[d]
and with their feet they rattle their bangles,[e]
17 the Lord will make the heads[f] of the daughters of Zion scabby,
and Yahweh will lay their foreheads bare.”
