Isaiah 3:10-12
International Standard Version
Encouragement to the Righteous
10 “Tell[a] the righteous that things will go well,
because they will enjoy[b] the fruit of their actions.”
Warning to the Wicked
11 “How terrible it will be for the wicked!
Disaster is headed their way,
because what they did with their hand[c] will be repaid[d] to them.
12 “As for my people, children[e] are their oppressors,
and women rule over them.
My people, your leaders are misleading you—
they’re giving you confusing directions.”[f]
