New Living Translation
A Sign of the Coming Judgment
5 “Son of man, take a sharp sword and use it as a razor to shave your head and beard. Use a scale to weigh the hair into three equal parts. 2 Place a third of it at the center of your map of Jerusalem. After acting out the siege, burn it there. Scatter another third across your map and chop it with a sword. Scatter the last third to the wind, for I will scatter my people with the sword. 3 Keep just a bit of the hair and tie it up in your robe. 4 Then take some of these hairs out and throw them into the fire, burning them up. A fire will then spread from this remnant and destroy all of Israel.

God’s Judgment on Assyria
Isaiah 9:14-17
New Living Translation
14 Therefore, in a single day the Lord will destroy both the head and the tail,
the noble palm branch and the lowly reed.
15 The leaders of Israel are the head,
and the lying prophets are the tail.
16 For the leaders of the people have misled them.
They have led them down the path of destruction.
17 That is why the Lord takes no pleasure in the young men
and shows no mercy even to the widows and orphans.
For they are all wicked hypocrites,
and they all speak foolishness.
But even then the Lord’s anger will not be satisfied.
His fist is still poised to strike.
Isaiah 9:14-17
New International Version
14 So the Lord will cut off from Israel both head and tail,
both palm branch and reed(A) in a single day;(B)
15 the elders(C) and dignitaries(D) are the head,
the prophets(E) who teach lies(F) are the tail.
16 Those who guide(G) this people mislead them,
and those who are guided are led astray.(H)
17 Therefore the Lord will take no pleasure in the young men,(I)
nor will he pity(J) the fatherless and widows,
for everyone is ungodly(K) and wicked,(L)
every mouth speaks folly.(M)
Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,
his hand is still upraised.(N)
