For, behold, the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, takes away from Jerusalem and from Judah supply and support, the whole supply of bread, and the whole supply of water;

11. vers
Woe to the wicked! Disaster is upon them, for the deeds of their hands will be paid back to them.

As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. My people, those who lead you cause you to err, and destroy the way of your paths.

Yahweh stands up to contend, and stands to judge the peoples.
14. vers
Yahweh will enter into judgment with the elders of his people and their leaders: “It is you who have eaten up the vineyard. The plunder of the poor is in your houses.
15. vers
What do you mean that you crush my people, and grind the face of the poor?” says the Lord, Yahweh of Armies.
16. vers
Moreover Yahweh said, “Because the daughters of Zion are arrogant, and walk with outstretched necks and flirting eyes, walking daintily as they go, jingling ornaments on their feet;

the fine robes, the capes, the cloaks, the purses,
23. vers
the hand mirrors, the fine linen garments, the tiaras, and the shawls.
24. vers
It shall happen that instead of sweet spices, there shall be rottenness; instead of a belt, a rope; instead of well set hair, baldness; instead of a robe, a wearing of sackcloth; and branding instead of beauty.
25. vers
Your men shall fall by the sword, and your mighty in the war.

Her gates shall lament and mourn. She shall be desolate and sit on the ground.
