Isaiah 3:15-17
Lexham English Bible

15 Why[a] do you crush my people
    and grind the face of the poor?”

declares[b] the Lord Yahweh of hosts.

The Pride of Jerusalem’s Women

16 And Yahweh said: “Because[c] the daughters of Zion are haughty,
    and they walk with outstretched neck,
    and they give flirting glances with their eyes,
        mincing along as they go,[d]
    and with their feet they rattle their bangles,[e]
17 the Lord will make the heads[f] of the daughters of Zion scabby,
    and Yahweh will lay their foreheads bare.”
