Yeshayah 3:1-8

Orthodox Jewish Bible

3 For, hinei, HaAdon, Hashem Tzva’os, doth take away from Yerushalayim and from Yehudah supply and support, the whole supply of lechem, and the whole supply of mayim.

² The Gibbor, and the Ish Milchamah, the Shofet, and the Navi, the Diviner, and the Zaken,

³ The sar chamishim, the men of rank and yo’etz (counselor), and masters in art, and the expert enchanter.

⁴ And I will make ne’arim (lads) to be their sarim, and babes shall rule over them.

⁵ And HaAm shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his re’a; the na’ar shall behave himself proudly against the zaken, and the base against the honorable.

⁶ When an ish shall take hold of his brother of his bais avi, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our katzin, and let this ruin be under thy yad;

⁷ In Yom Hahu shall he protest, saying, I am no curer of your ills; for in my bais is neither lechem nor simlah (clothing); make me not a Katzin Am.

⁸ For Yerushalayim is ruined, and Yehudah fallen; because their leshon and their deeds are against Hashem, to provoke the eyes of His kavod.
