Isaiah 3:16-18
Lexham English Bible
The Pride of Jerusalem’s Women
16 And Yahweh said: “Because[a] 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,[b]
and with their feet they rattle their bangles,[c]
17 the Lord will make the heads[d] of the daughters of Zion scabby,
and Yahweh will lay their foreheads bare.”
18 In that day the Lord will take away the finery of the anklets
and the headbands and the crescent necklaces,
