Isaiah 3:5-7

Easy-to-Read Version

⁵ The people will turn against each other. Young people will not respect those who are older. The common people will not respect important leaders.”

⁶ At that time a man will grab one of his brothers from his own family and tell him, “You have a coat,^[a] so you will be our leader. You will be the leader over all these ruins.”

⁷ But the brother will refuse and say, “I cannot help you. I don’t have enough food or clothes for my own family. You will not make me your leader.”
