Isaiah 3:14
Compare all
12 As for My people, children are their oppressors,
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

13 The Lord stands up ato plead,
And stands to judge the people. 
14 The Lord will enter into judgment
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. 
15 What do you mean by acrushing My people
And grinding the faces of the poor?”
Says the Lord God of hosts.  
16 Moreover the Lord says:
“Because the daughters of Zion are haughty,
And walk with1 outstretched necks
And1 wanton eyes,
Walking and1 mincing as they go,
Making a jingling with their feet,

Isaiah 3:14

Ancients - The princes or rulers; such were commonly chosen out of those who were in ripe years. Eaten - Destroyed instead of preserving the church and commonwealth of Israel. Spoil - The goods which you have violently taken away from the poor.
