Isaiah 3:4-6
Contemporary English Version
4 He will let children and babies[a]
become your rulers.
5 You will each be cruel
to friends and neighbors.
Young people will insult
their elders;
no one will show respect
to those who deserve it.
6 Some of you will grab hold
of a relative and say,
“You still have a coat.
Be our leader and rule
this pile of ruins.”
Footnotes
- 3.4 babies: Or “worthless nobodies.”
