Isaiah 3:18-26 ▼

18 In that day the Lord will take away the beauty of their anklets, [braided] caps, crescent [head] ornaments,

19 dangling earrings, bracelets, and the hanging veils and scarves,

20 head wraps (turbans), [short, jingling] ankle chains, sashes, perfume boxes, amulets (charms),

21 signet [finger] rings, nose rings,

22 festival robes, outer tunics, shawls, handbags,

23 hand mirrors, [fine linen] undergarments, headbands, and veils [covering the entire body].

24 Now it will come to pass that instead of the sweet fragrance of spices there will be [the stench of] rottenness; Instead of a belt, a rope; Instead of well-set hair, baldness; Instead of fine clothes, a robe of sackcloth; And branding [of captives by the scorching heat] instead of beauty.

25 Your men will fall by the sword And your mighty men in battle.

26 And Jerusalem’s gates will lament (cry out in grief) and mourn [as those who wail for the dead]; And she, being ruined and desolate, will sit upon the ground.
