Isaiah 3:18-26

18On that day the Lord will take away their fine things: jingling anklets, headbands, crescent-shaped necklaces,

19pendants, bracelets, scarfs,

20hats, ankle bracelets, blouses, perfume boxes, charms,

21signet rings, nose rings,

22fine robes, coats, shawls, purses,

23mirrors, underwear, headdresses, and veils.

24Instead of the smell of perfume, there will be the smell of decay. They will wear ropes instead of belts. They will have bald heads instead of beautiful hair. They will wear sackcloth instead of expensive clothes. Their beauty will be scarred.

25⌞Women,⌟ your warriors will die in combat. Your mighty men will die in battle.

26The gates of Zion will cry and grieve, and Zion will sit on the ground, exhausted.
