9 “Therefore I will return and take away
My grain in its time
And My new wine in its season,
And will take back My wool and My linen,
Given to cover her nakedness.
10 Now (A)I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers,
And no one shall deliver her from My hand.
11 (B)I will also cause all her mirth to cease,
Her feast days,
Her New Moons,
Her Sabbaths—
All her appointed feasts.
12 “And I will destroy her vines and her fig trees,
Of which she has said,
‘These are my wages that my lovers have given me.’
So I will make them a forest,
And the beasts of the field shall eat them.
13 I will punish her
For the days of the Baals to which she burned incense.
She decked herself with her earrings and jewelry,
And went after her lovers;
But Me she forgot,” says the Lord.

And this is all the fruit of taking away his sin:
When he makes all the stones of the altar
Like chalkstones that are beaten to dust,
[a]Wooden images and incense altars shall not stand.

16 Moreover the Lord says:
“Because the daughters of Zion are haughty,
And walk with [a]outstretched necks
And [b]wanton eyes,
Walking and [c]mincing as they go,
Making a jingling with their feet,
17 Therefore the Lord will strike with (A)a scab
The crown of the head of the daughters of Zion,
And the Lord will (B)uncover their secret parts.”
18 In that day the Lord will take away the finery:
The jingling anklets, the [d]scarves, and the (C)crescents;
19 The pendants, the bracelets, and the veils;
20 The headdresses, the leg ornaments, and the headbands;
The perfume boxes, the charms,
21 and the rings;
The nose jewels,
22 the festal apparel, and the mantles;
The outer garments, the purses,
23 and the mirrors;
The fine linen, the turbans, and the robes.
24 And so it shall be:
Instead of a sweet smell there will be a stench;
Instead of a sash, a rope;
Instead of well-set hair, (D)baldness;
Instead of a rich robe, a girding of sackcloth;
And [e]branding instead of beauty.
