ABP - Isaiah - 3

3:1  Behold, indeed the master, the lord of Hosts, he shall remove from Jerusalem and from Judea the prevailing man and prevailing woman; the strength of bread and the strength of water;

3:2  the giant and the one prevailing, and a man warrior, and magistrate, and prophet, and thinker, and old man,

3:3  and commander of fifty, and wonderful counselor, and wise architect, and discerning listener.

3:4  And I will set young men as their rulers; and mockers will lord over them.

3:5  And [3will be downcast 1the 2people]; man against man, even a man will be against his neighbor; [3will strike 1the 2boy] against the old man; the one without honor against the important.

3:6  For [2shall take hold of 1a man] his brother, or a member of the family of his father, saying, [2a garment 1You have], [3chief 1you become 2our]; and [3food needs 2my 5under 6you 1let 4be]!

3:7  And answering in that day, he will say, I will not be your chief, [3no 1for 5in 6my house 2there is 4bread], nor a garment; I will not be a chief of this people.

3:8  For Jerusalem is forsaken, and Judea is cast down, and their tongues speak with lawlessness the things against the lord, resisting persuasion.

3:9  Because now [2was abased 1their glory], and the shame of their face withstood them, and [2their sin 3as 4Sodom 1they announced], and revealed it. Woe to their soul, because they consulted [2counsel 1wicked] against themselves;

3:10  having said, We should bind the just, for [2inconvenient 3to us 1he is]; therefore the produce of their works they shall eat.

3:11  Woe to the lawless one; evils according to the works of his hands shall come to pass against him.

3:12  O my people, your exactors glean you, and the ones exacting lord over you; O my people, the ones declaring you blessed mislead you, and [2the 3roads 4of your feet 1they disturb].

3:13  But now [2will place 3in 4judgment 1the lord], and will stand [2in 3judgment 1his people].

3:14  The lord himself [2for 3judgment 1shall come] with the elders of the people, and with his rulers. But you, why did you set on fire my vineyard, and the seizure of the poor is in your houses?

3:15  Why do you wrong my people, and [2the 3face 4of the 5poor 1disgrace], says the lord, the Lord of the militaries?

3:16  Thus says the lord, Because [4are haughty 1the 2daughters 3of Zion], and they go with a high neck, and with the beckon of the eyes, and their goings with their feet together, dragging their inner garments, and their feet [2together 1playing];

3:17  therefore [2will abase 1the lord] the ruling daughters of Zion; and the lord will uncover their condition.

3:18  In that day even the lord will remove the glory of their clothes, and the fringes, and the crescents,

3:19  and the necklace, and the ornament of their face,

3:20  and the array of the ornament of glory, and the armlets, and the bracelets, and the wreaths, and the rings, and the right armbands,

3:21  and the ear-rings, and the objects edged with purple, and the purple ornamentations,

3:22  and the cloths for the house, and the transparencies of Lakonika,

3:23  and the fine linens, and the ones of blue, and scarlet, and the linen [2with 3gold 4and 5blue 1being interwoven], and the lightweight coverings for divans.

3:24  And there will be [2instead of 4scent 3an agreeable 1a cloud of dust]; and instead of a belt, [2with a rough cord 1you shall tie around]; and instead of the [2ornament 3for the 4head 1gold], [2baldness 1you shall have] on account of your works; and instead of the inner garment of purple ornamentation, you shall gird on sackcloth.

3:25  And [3son 1your 2best] whom you love [2by the sword 1shall fall]; and your strong ones [2by the sword 1shall fall], and they shall be abased.

3:26  And [4shall mourn 1the 2cases 3of your ornamentation]; and you shall be left behind alone; and into the earth you shall be dashed.
