1 For, behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, Doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah Stay and staff, Every stay of bread, and every stay of water; 2 The mighty man, and the man of war; The judge, and the prophet, And the diviner, and the elder; 3 The captain of fifty, and the man of rank, And the counsellor, and the cunning charmer, and the skilful enchanter. 4 And I will give children to be their princes, And babes shall rule over them. 5 And the people shall oppress one another, Every man his fellow, and every man his neighbour; The child shall behave insolently against the aged, And the base against the honourable, Isaiah 3:1-5, JPS Tanakh 1917.
