Yahweh Will Judge Judah’s Leaders
3 For behold, the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, (A)is going to remove from Jerusalem and Judah
Both [a]supply and support, the whole [b]supply of bread
And the whole [c]supply of water,
2 (B)The mighty man and the man of war,
The judge and the prophet,
The diviner and the elder,
3 The commander of fifty and the [d]highly respected man,
The counselor and the wise craftsman,
And the experienced enchanter.
4 And I will make (C)young men their princes,
And [e]capricious children will rule over them,
5 And the people will be (D)oppressed,
Each one by another, and each one by his (E)neighbor;
The youth will overwhelm the elder
And the dishonorable, the honorable.
6 When a man (F)grasps his brother in his father’s house, saying,
“You have a cloak, you shall be our ruler,
And these ruins will be under your hand,”
7 He will [f]protest on that day, saying,
“I will not be your [g](G)healer,
For in my house there is neither bread nor cloak;
You should not appoint me ruler of the people.”
8 For (H)Jerusalem has stumbled and Judah has fallen,
Because their (I)tongue and their deeds are against Yahweh,
To (J)rebel against [h]His glorious presence.
9 [i]The expression of their faces answers against them,
And they declare their sin like (K)Sodom;
They do not even conceal it.
Woe to their soul!
For they have (L)dealt out evil on themselves.
10 Say to the (M)righteous that it will go well with them,
For they will eat the fruit of their deeds.
11 Woe to the wicked! It will go badly with him,
For [j](N)what he has dealt out will be done to him.
12 O My people! Their taskmasters [k]are (O)infants,
And women rule over them.
O My people! (P)Those who guide you lead you astray
And swallow up the way of your paths.
13 (Q)Yahweh takes His stand to contend,
And stands to judge the peoples.
14 Yahweh (R)enters into judgment with the elders of His people and His princes,
“It is you who have (S)consumed the vineyard;
The (T)plunder robbed of the afflicted is in your houses.
15 What do you mean by (U)crushing My people
And grinding the face of the afflicted?”
Declares Lord Yahweh of hosts.
Yahweh Will Judge Zion’s Daughters
16 Moreover, Yahweh said, “Because the (V)daughters of Zion are haughty
And walk with outstretched necks and seductive eyes,
And go along with mincing steps
And tinkle the bangles on their feet,
17 Therefore the Lord will smite the skull of the daughters of Zion with scabs,
And Yahweh will make their foreheads bare.”
18 In that day the Lord will remove the beauty of their anklets, headbands, (W)crescent ornaments, 19 dangling earrings, bracelets, veils, 20 (X)headdresses, ankle chains, sashes, perfume boxes, enchanted charms, 21 [l]finger rings, (Y)nose rings, 22 festal robes, outer tunics, cloaks, money purses, 23 hand mirrors, undergarments, turbans, and shawls.
24 Now it will be that instead of [m]sweet (Z)perfume there will be the smell of rot;
Instead of a belt, a rope;
Instead of (AA)well-set hair, a (AB)plucked-out scalp;
Instead of fine clothes, a (AC)donning of sackcloth;
And branding instead of beauty.
25 Your men will (AD)fall by the sword
And your [n]mighty ones in battle.
26 And her [o](AE)gates will lament and mourn,
And deserted she will (AF)sit on the ground.

以赛亚书 3
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
耶路撒冷的混乱状态
3 看哪！主万军之耶和华，快要从耶路撒冷和犹大，
除掉人所倚靠的和所倚赖的，就是众人所倚靠的粮，
众人所倚赖的水；
2 除掉勇士和战士、
审判官和先知、
占卜的和长老、
3 五十夫长和尊贵的人、
谋士和有技艺的工人，
以及精通法术的。
4 我必使孩童作他们的领袖，
使婴孩管辖他们。
5 人民必互相压迫，
人欺压人，也欺压自己的邻舍；
年轻人要欺凌老年人，
卑贱人必欺凌尊贵人。
6 人若在父家里，拉住自己一个兄弟，说：
“你有一件外衣，你就作我们的官长吧！
这败落的事就归你的手处理。”
7 那时，那人必高声说：
“我不作医治你们的人（“医治你们的人”直译是“包扎创伤的”），
因为我家里没有粮食，也没有外衣，
你们不要立我作人民的官长。”
8 耶路撒冷败落，犹大倾倒，
是因为他们的舌头和行为都敌对耶和华，
惹怒了他那充满荣光的眼目。
9 他们面上的表情指证他们的不对；
他们像所多玛一般宣扬自己的罪恶，
并不隐瞒；
他们有祸了，
因为他们自招祸害。
10 你们要告诉义人，他们必得福乐，
因为他们必享自己行为所结的果子。
11 恶人却有祸了，他们必遭灾难，
因为他们必按自己手所作的得报应。
12 至于我的子民，孩童欺压他们，
妇女管辖他们；
我的子民啊！那引导你们的，使你们走错了路，
并且混乱了你们所走的方向。
耶和华的审判
13 耶和华起来辩论，
站着审判人民。
14 耶和华必审问他子民中的长老和领袖，说：
“那吞尽葡萄园的，就是你们；
从贫穷人那里掠夺的，都在你们家中。”
15 主万军之耶和华说：
“你们为甚么压迫我的子民，
搓磨贫穷人的脸呢？”
锡安女子的命运
16 耶和华又说：
“因为锡安的女子高傲，
走路挺直颈项，媚眼看人，
俏步徐行，
用脚发出叮当声。
17 因此，主必使锡安的女子头顶长出秃疮；
耶和华又使她们露出前额。”
18 到那日，主必除掉她们华美的脚钏、发网、月牙圈、 19 耳坠、手镯、蒙脸的帕子、 20 头饰、脚环、华带、香盒、符囊、 21 戒指、鼻环、 22 美服、外衣、钱袋、 23 镜子、细麻衬衣、头巾、蒙身帕子。
24 必有腐臭代替馨香，
绳子代替腰带，
光秃代替美发，
麻衣系腰代替美服，
烙痕代替美貌。
25 你的男丁要倒在刀下，
你的勇士必死在战场。
26 锡安的城门必悲哀哭号，
锡安被掠夺，成了一片荒凉后，必坐在地上。

New International Version
Judgment on Jerusalem and Judah
3 See now, the Lord,
the Lord Almighty,
is about to take from Jerusalem and Judah
both supply and support:(A)
all supplies of food(B) and all supplies of water,(C)
2 the hero and the warrior,(D)
the judge and the prophet,
the diviner(E) and the elder,(F)
3 the captain of fifty(G) and the man of rank,(H)
the counselor, skilled craftsman(I) and clever enchanter.(J)
4 “I will make mere youths their officials;
children will rule over them.”(K)
5 People will oppress each other—
man against man, neighbor against neighbor.(L)
The young will rise up against the old,
the nobody against the honored.
6 A man will seize one of his brothers
in his father’s house, and say,
“You have a cloak, you be our leader;
take charge of this heap of ruins!”
7 But in that day(M) he will cry out,
“I have no remedy.(N)
I have no food(O) or clothing in my house;
do not make me the leader of the people.”(P)
8 Jerusalem staggers,
Judah is falling;(Q)
their words(R) and deeds(S) are against the Lord,
defying(T) his glorious presence.
9 The look on their faces testifies(U) against them;
they parade their sin like Sodom;(V)
they do not hide it.
Woe to them!
They have brought disaster(W) upon themselves.
10 Tell the righteous it will be well(X) with them,
for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds.(Y)
11 Woe to the wicked!(Z)
Disaster(AA) is upon them!
They will be paid back(AB)
for what their hands have done.(AC)
12 Youths(AD) oppress my people,
women rule over them.
My people, your guides lead you astray;(AE)
they turn you from the path.
13 The Lord takes his place in court;(AF)
he rises to judge(AG) the people.
14 The Lord enters into judgment(AH)
against the elders and leaders of his people:
“It is you who have ruined my vineyard;
the plunder(AI) from the poor(AJ) is in your houses.
15 What do you mean by crushing my people(AK)
and grinding(AL) the faces of the poor?”(AM)
declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty.(AN)
16 The Lord says,
“The women of Zion(AO) are haughty,
walking along with outstretched necks,(AP)
flirting with their eyes,
strutting along with swaying hips,
with ornaments jingling on their ankles.
17 Therefore the Lord will bring sores on the heads of the women of Zion;
the Lord will make their scalps bald.(AQ)”
18 In that day(AR) the Lord will snatch away their finery: the bangles and headbands and crescent necklaces,(AS) 19 the earrings and bracelets(AT) and veils,(AU) 20 the headdresses(AV) and anklets and sashes, the perfume bottles and charms, 21 the signet rings and nose rings,(AW) 22 the fine robes and the capes and cloaks,(AX) the purses 23 and mirrors, and the linen garments(AY) and tiaras(AZ) and shawls.
24 Instead of fragrance(BA) there will be a stench;(BB)
instead of a sash,(BC) a rope;
instead of well-dressed hair, baldness;(BD)
instead of fine clothing, sackcloth;(BE)
instead of beauty,(BF) branding.(BG)
25 Your men will fall by the sword,(BH)
your warriors in battle.(BI)
26 The gates(BJ) of Zion will lament and mourn;(BK)
destitute,(BL) she will sit on the ground.(BM)
