“I cannot cure your ills,
For in my house is neither food nor clothing;
Do not make me a ruler of the people.”
And Judah is fallen,
Because their tongue and their doings
Are against the Lord,
To provoke the eyes of His glory.
And they declare their sin as aSodom;
They do not hide it.
Woe to their soul!
For they have brought evil upon themselves.
bFor they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
And women rule over them.
O My people! aThose who lead you cause you to err,
And destroy the way of your paths.”
Oppression and Luxury Condemned
With the elders of His people
And His princes:
“For you have1 eaten up athe vineyard;
The plunder of the poor is in your houses.
| << Isaiah 3:8 | Isaiah 3:10 >> |
Isaiah 3:9
The shew - Their pride, and wantonness, and impiety m manifestly shews itself in their very looks. They declare - They act it publickly, casting off all fear of God and reverence to men. Rewarded - Procured a fit recompense for their wickedness, even utter ruin.
| << Isaiah 3:8 | Isaiah 3:10 >> |
