Isaiah 3:24

Read in context

Isaiah 3:22–26 · Berean Standard Bible

22 their festive robes, capes, cloaks, and purses;

23 and their mirrors, linen garments, tiaras, and shawls.

24 Instead of fragrance there will be a stench; instead of a belt, a rope; instead of styled hair, baldness; instead of fine clothing, sackcloth; instead of beauty, shame.

25 Your men will fall by the sword, and your warriors in battle.

26 And the gates of Zion will lament and mourn; destitute, she will sit on the ground.
