Isaiah 3:17-25

17Therefore the Lord will afflict the scalp of the daughters of Zion with scabs, And the Lord will make their foreheads bare.” 18In that day the Lord will take away the beauty of their anklets, headbands, 1crescent ornaments, 19dangling earrings, bracelets, veils, 202headdresses, ankle chains, sashes, perfume boxes, amulets, 213finger rings, 4nose rings, 22festal robes, outer tunics, cloaks, money purses, 23hand mirrors, undergarments, turbans and veils.24Now it will come about that instead of 5sweet 6perfume there will be putrefaction; Instead of a belt, a rope; Instead of 7well-set hair, a 8plucked-out scalp; Instead of fine clothes, a 9donning of sackcloth; And branding instead of beauty.25Your men will 10fall by the sword And your 11mighty ones in battle.
