Isaiah 3:4-6
Evangelical Heritage Version
4 I will give them young men as their officials,
and immature children[a] will rule over them.
5 The people will tyrannize each other,
man against man, neighbor against neighbor.
The young man will behave arrogantly against the elder,
and the dishonorable against the honorable.
6 Then a man will take hold of his brother in his father’s house and say, “You have fine clothing. You be our ruler. You take charge of these ruins.”

children will rule over them.”(A)
5 People will oppress each other—
man against man, neighbor against neighbor.(B)
The young will rise up against the old,
the nobody against the honored.

in his father’s house, and say,
“You have a cloak, you be our leader;
take charge of this heap of ruins!”
