Isaiah 3:13-17 Common English Bible (CEB)

13. The Lord arises to accuse;he stands to judge the peoples.

14. The Lord will enter into judgmentwith the elders and princes of his people:You yourselves have devoured the vineyard;the goods stolen from the poor are in your houses.

15. How dare you crush my peopleand grind the faces of the poor?says the Lord God of heavenly forces.

16. The Lord says:Because Zion’s daughters applaud themselves,walking with their chins in the air,flirting with their eyes,tiptoeing as they walk, feet jingling—

17. the Lord will shave the heads of Zion’s daughters,and will expose their scalps.
