Isaiah 3:1-7

Lexham English Bible

3 For look, the Lord Yahweh of hosts is removing every source of support^[a]
    from Jerusalem and from Judah:
all of the supplies of bread
    and all of the supplies of water,
² mighty warrior and man of war,
    judge and prophet,
    and diviner and elder,
³ captain of fifty and the honorable men of rank,
    and counselor and skillful magicians and skillful enchanter.
⁴ And I will make boys their princes,
    and children shall rule over them.
⁵ And the people will be oppressed by each other^[b]
    and a man by his neighbor.
The boy will act arrogantly toward the elder,
    and the dishonorable toward the honorable.
⁶ Indeed, a man will seize his brother
    in the house of his father:
“You have a cloak;^[c]
    you shall be a leader for us,
    and this heap of ruins shall be under your hand!”
⁷ He will lift up his voice on that day, saying,
“I will not be a healer;
    in my house there is no bread
        and there is no cloak.
    You shall not make me the leader of the people!”
