Context of Isaiah 3:25
23The mirrors, and the fine linen, and the turbans, and the veils. 24And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be a foul odour; and instead of a belt a rope; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a rich robe a girding of sackcloth; and a brand instead of beauty.
