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.”

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)”
