15 What do you mean by crushing my people?
    Why are you grinding the faces of the poor into the dirt?”
    announces the Lord. He is the Lord who rules over all.

    “The women in Zion are very proud.
They walk along with their noses in the air.
    They tease men with their eyes.

17 So I will put sores on the heads of Zion’s women.
    And I will remove the hair from their heads.”
