Isaiah 3:6-8

Good News Translation

⁶ A time will come when the members of a clan will choose one of their number and say to him, “You at least have something to wear, so be our leader in this time of trouble.”

⁷ But he will answer, “Not me! I can't help you. I don't have any food or clothes either. Don't make me your leader!”

⁸ Yes, Jerusalem is doomed! Judah is collapsing! Everything they say and do is against the Lord; they openly insult God himself.
