Isaiah 3 Judgment on Judah and Jerusalem | Oppression and Luxury Condemned

Isaiah 3:1-12 Judgment on Judah and Jerusalem
Isaiah 3:13-26 Oppression and Luxury Condemned

Isaiah 3:8-9
8
For Jerusalem stumbled,
And Judah is fallen,
Because their tongue and their doings
Are against the Lord,
To provoke the eyes of His glory.
9
The look on their countenance witnesses against them,
And they declare their sin as Sodom;
They do not hide it.
Woe to their soul!
For they have brought evil upon themselves.

Isaiah 3:13-15
13
The Lord stands up to 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 have eaten up the vineyard;
The plunder of the poor is in your houses.
15
What do you mean by crushing My people
And grinding the faces of the poor?”
Says the Lord God of hosts.

Isaiah 3:16-17
16 Moreover the Lord says:

“Because the daughters of Zion are haughty,
And walk with outstretched necks
And wanton (seductive, ogling) eyes,
Walking and mincing as they go,
Making a jingling with their feet,
17
Therefore the Lord will strike with a scab
The crown of the head of the daughters of Zion,
And the Lord will uncover their secret parts.”

Isaiah 3:26
26
Her gates shall lament and mourn,
And she being desolate shall sit on the ground.
