Isaiah 3:6-8

Easy-to-Read Version

⁶ At that time a man will grab one of his brothers from his own family and tell him, “You have a coat,^[a] so you will be our leader. You will be the leader over all these ruins.”

⁷ But the brother will refuse and say, “I cannot help you. I don’t have enough food or clothes for my own family. You will not make me your leader.”

⁸ This will happen because Jerusalem has stumbled, and Judah has fallen. They turned against the Lord. They said and did things against him, right in front of his glorious eyes.
