Isaiah 3:7-9
International Standard Version
7 “But[a] at that time,[b] he’ll protest![c]
He’ll say, ‘I won’t be your healer.
I have neither food nor clothing in my house!
You’re not going to make me a leader of the people!’
8 “For Jerusalem has stumbled,
and Judah has fallen,
because what they say and do opposes[d] the Lord;
they keep defying him.[e]
9 “The expressions on their faces give them away.[f]
They parade their sin around like Sodom;
they don’t even try to[g] hide it.
How horrible it will be for them,
because they have brought disaster on themselves!”

Isaiah 3:7-9
King James Version
7 In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.
8 For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the Lord, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
9 The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.
