Isaiah 3:6-8

6When a manH376 shall take holdH8610 of his brotherH251 of the houseH1004 of his fatherH1, saying, Thou hast clothingH8071, be thou our rulerH7101, and let this ruinH4384 be under thy handH3027:

7In that dayH3117 shall he swearH5375, sayingH559, I will not be an healerH2280; for in my houseH1004 is neither breadH3899 nor clothingH8071: makeH7760 me not a rulerH7101 of the peopleH5971.1 2

8For JerusalemH3389 is ruinedH3782, and JudahH3063 is fallenH5307: because their tongueH3956 and their doingsH4611 are against YhwhH3068, to provokeH4784 the eyesH5869 of his gloryH3519.
