New Living Translation

Isaiah 3:15-23 New Living Translation (NLT)

15. How dare you crush my people,grinding the faces of the poor into the dust?”demands the Lord, the lord of Heaven’s Armies.

16. The lord says, “Beautiful Zion is haughty:craning her elegant neck,flirting with her eyes,walking with dainty steps,tinkling her ankle bracelets.

17. So the Lord will send scabs on her head;the lord will make beautiful Zion bald.”

18. On that day of judgmentthe Lord will strip away everything that makes her beautiful:ornaments, headbands, crescent necklaces,

19. earrings, bracelets, and veils;

20. scarves, ankle bracelets, sashes,perfumes, and charms;

21. rings, jewels,

22. party clothes, gowns, capes, and purses;

23. mirrors, fine linen garments,head ornaments, and shawls.
