What does Isaiah 3:11 mean?

Perhaps the most terrifying consequence for sin is to be treated as one has treated others. This is the judgement proclaimed against those Israelites in ancient Jerusalem and Judah who have been declared wicked (Isaiah 3:1–8). Due to their open sinfulness and defiance before God, they will experience the harm they have done to others.

Some of the Lord's charges against His people involved mistreatment of the poor by the rich and the powerful. In an act of divine justice, the Lord will cause those who have done such things to receive the same treatment in time (Isaiah 3:14–15).
