Isaiah 3:6-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
6
When a man lays hold of his brother in his father’s house,
saying,
'You have a cloak, you shall be our ruler!
And these ruins will be under your authority,'
7
He will protest on that day, saying,
'I will not be
your
healer,
For in my house there is neither bread nor cloak;
You should not appoint me ruler of the people.'
8
For Jerusalem has stumbled and Judah has fallen,
Because their speech and their actions are against the
Lord
,
To rebel against His glorious presence.
9
The expression of their faces testifies against them,
And they display their sin like Sodom;
They do not
even
conceal
it.
Woe to them!
For they have done evil to themselves.
10
Say to the righteous that
it will go
well
for them,
For they will eat the fruit of their actions.
11
Woe to the wicked!
It will go
badly
for him,
For what he deserves will be done to him.
12
My people! Their oppressors treat them violently,
And women rule over them.
My people! Those who guide you lead
you
astray
And confuse the direction of your paths.
13
The
Lord
arises to contend,
And stands to judge the people.
14
The
Lord
enters into judgment with the elders and leaders of His people,
'It is you who have devoured the vineyard;
The goods stolen from the poor are in your houses.
15
What do you mean by crushing My people
And oppressing the face of the poor?'
Declares the Lord
God
of armies.
16
Moreover, the
Lord
said, 'Because the daughters of Zion are haughty
And walk with heads held high and seductive eyes,
And go along with mincing steps
And jingle the anklets on their feet,
King James Version
Chapter 3
6
When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand:
7
In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.
8
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the
Lord
, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
9
The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.
10
Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
11
Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.
12
As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
13
The
Lord
standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people.
14
The
Lord
will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses.
15
What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord
God
of hosts.
16
Moreover the
Lord
saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
6
A man will even seize his brother
in his father’s house, saying:
"You have a cloak—you be our leader!
This heap of rubble will be under your control."
7
On that day he will cry out, saying:
"I’m not a healer.
I don’t even have food or clothing in my house.
Don’t make me the leader of the people!"
8
For Jerusalem has stumbled
and Judah has fallen
because they have spoken and acted against the
Lord
,
defying his glorious presence.
9
The look on their faces testifies against them,
and like Sodom, they flaunt their sin;
they do not conceal it.
Woe to them,
for they have brought disaster on themselves.
10
Tell the righteous that it will go well for them,
for they will eat the fruit of their labor.
11
Woe to the wicked—it will go badly for them,
for what they have done will be done to them.
12
Youths oppress my people,
and women rule over them.
My people, your leaders mislead you;
they confuse the direction of your paths.
13
The
Lord
rises to argue the case
and stands to judge the people.
14
The
Lord
brings this charge
against the elders and leaders of his people:
"You have devastated the vineyard.
The plunder from the poor is in your houses.
15
Why do you crush my people
and grind the faces of the poor?" This is the declaration of the Lord
God
of Armies.
16
The
Lord
also says:
Because the daughters of Zion are haughty,
walking with heads held high
and seductive eyes,
prancing along,
jingling their ankle bracelets,
New Living Translation
Chapter 3
6
In those days a man will say to his brother,
'Since you have a coat, you be our leader!
Take charge of this heap of ruins!'
7
But he will reply,
'No! I can’t help.
I don’t have any extra food or clothes.
Don’t put me in charge!'
8
For Jerusalem will stumble,
and Judah will fall,
because they speak out against the
Lord
and refuse to obey him.
They provoke him to his face.
9
The very look on their faces gives them away.
They display their sin like the people of Sodom
and don’t even try to hide it.
They are doomed!
They have brought destruction upon themselves.
10
Tell the godly that all will be well for them.
They will enjoy the rich reward they have earned!
11
But the wicked are doomed,
for they will get exactly what they deserve.
12
Childish leaders oppress my people,
and women rule over them.
O my people, your leaders mislead you;
they send you down the wrong road.
13
The
Lord
takes his place in court
and presents his case against his people.
14
The
Lord
comes forward to pronounce judgment
on the elders and rulers of his people:
'You have ruined Israel, my vineyard.
Your houses are filled with things stolen from the poor.
15
How dare you crush my people,
grinding the faces of the poor into the dust?'
demands the Lord, the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies.
16
The
Lord
says, 'Beautiful Zion is haughty:
craning her elegant neck,
flirting with her eyes,
walking with dainty steps,
tinkling her ankle bracelets.

shall be under your rule";
7
in that day he will speak out, saying:
"I will not be a healer;

8
For Jerusalem has stumbled,

For the look on their faces bears witness against them;
they proclaim their sin like Sodom;
they do not hide it.
Woe to them!
For they have brought evil on themselves.
10
Tell the righteous that it shall be well with them,
for they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.
11
Woe to the wicked! It shall be ill with him,
for what his hands have dealt out shall be done to him.
12
My people — infants are their oppressors,
and women rule over them.
O my people, your guides mislead you
and they have swallowed up the course of your paths.
13
The
Lord
has taken his place to contend;
he stands to judge peoples.

The
Lord
will enter into judgment
with the elders and princes of his people:

God
of hosts.

Lord
said:
Because the daughters of Zion are haughty
and walk with outstretched necks,
glancing wantonly with their eyes,
mincing along as they go,
tinkling with their feet,
New International Version
Chapter 3
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 he will cry out,
"I have no remedy.
I have no food or clothing in my house;
do not make me the leader of the people."
8
Jerusalem staggers,
Judah is falling;
their words and deeds are against the
Lord
,
defying his glorious presence.
9
The look on their faces testifies against them;
they parade their sin like Sodom;
they do not hide it.
Woe to them!
They have brought disaster upon themselves.
10
Tell the righteous it will be well with them,
for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds.
11
Woe to the wicked!
Disaster is upon them!
They will be paid back
for what their hands have done.

Youths oppress my people,
women rule over them.
My people, your guides lead you astray;
they turn you from the path.

declares the Lord, the
Lord
Almighty.

The
Lord
says,
"The women of Zion are haughty,
walking along with outstretched necks,
flirting with their eyes,
strutting along with swaying hips,
with ornaments jingling on their ankles.

6
When a man takes hold of his brother
In the house of his father,
saying,
“You have clothing;
You be our ruler,
And
let
these ruins
be
under your power,”
7
In that day he will protest, saying,
“I cannot cure
your
ills,
For in my house
is
neither food nor clothing;
Do not make me a ruler of the people.”
8
For Jerusalem stumbled,
And Judah is fallen,
Because their tongue and their doings
Are
against the

,
To provoke the eyes of His glory.

The look on their countenance witnesses against them,
And they declare their sin as Sodom;
They do not hide
it.
Woe to their soul!
For they have brought evil upon themselves.

“Say to the righteous that
it shall be

they go,
Making a jingling with their feet,
