Isaiah 3:15-17
1599 Geneva Bible
15 What have ye to do that ye beat my people to pieces, [a]and grind the faces of the poor, saith the Lord, even the Lord of hosts?
16 The Lord also saith, [b]Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with [c]stretched out necks, and with [d]wandering eyes, walking and [e]mincing as they go, and making a [f]tinkling with their feet,
17 Therefore shall the Lord make the heads of the daughters of Zion bald, and the Lord shall discover their secret parts.

Isaiah 3:15-17
New International Version
15 What do you mean by crushing my people(A)
and grinding(B) the faces of the poor?”(C)
declares the Lord, the Lord Almighty.(D)
16 The Lord says,
“The women of Zion(E) are haughty,
walking along with outstretched necks,(F)
flirting with their eyes,
strutting along with swaying hips,
with ornaments jingling on their ankles.
17 Therefore the Lord will bring sores on the heads of the women of Zion;
the Lord will make their scalps bald.(G)”
