1For, behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water, 2The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient, 3The captain of fifty, and the honourable man, and the counsellor, and the cunning artificer, and the eloquent orator. 4And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. 5And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable. 6When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand: 7In 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. 8For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory.

9The 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. 10Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. 11Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. 12As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. 13The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people. 14The LORD will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses. 15What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the LORD GOD of hosts. 16Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:
17και ταπινωϲει ο θϲ αρχουϲαϲ θυγατεραϲ ϲειων · και κϲ ανακαλυψι το ϲχημαʼ αυτω . 18εν τη ημερα εκινη · και αφελι κϲ την δοξαν του ϊματιϲμου αυτω · και τουϲ κοϲμουϲ αυτων · και τα εμπλοκιαʼ αυτων · κ(αι) τουϲ κοϲυμβουϲ αυτων · και τουϲ μηνιϲκουϲ · 19και το καθεμα · και το κοϲμον του προϲωπου αυτων · 20και την ϲυνθεϲι του κοϲμου τηϲ δοξηϲ αυτων · και τουϲ κλιδωναϲ και τα ενωτια · 21και τα περιπορφυρα · και τα μεϲοπορφυρα · 22και τα επιβληματα τα κατα την οικιαν · και τα διαφανη · λακωνικα 23και τα βυϲϲινα · και τα ϋακινθινα · κ(αι) τα κοκκινα · και την βυϲϲον · ϲυν χρυϲιω ˙ και ϋακινθω ϲυνκατϋφαϲμενα και θεριϲτρα και τα κατακλιϲτρα · 24και εϲτε αντι οϲμηϲ ηδῖαʼϲ κονιορτοϲ · και αντι ζωνηϲ ϲχοινιο ζωϲη · και αντι του κοϲμου τηϲ καιφαληϲ του χρυϲιου φαλακρωμα εξειϲ δια τα εργα ϲου · και αντι του κιτωνοϲ του μεϲοπορφυρου · περιζωϲη ϲακκοι ·
17Therefore the LORD will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will discover their secret parts. 18In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their cauls, and their round tires like the moon, 19The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers, 20The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings, 21The rings, and nose jewels, 22The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins, 23The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails. 24And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty.
25και ο ϋϊοϲ ϲου ο καλλιϲτοϲ · ονʼ αγαπαϲ · μαχερα πεϲιται · και οι ϊϲχυοταιϲ ϋμων · μαχερα πεϲουνται · 26και ταπινωθηϲονται και πενθηϲουϲιν αι θηκαι του κοϲμου ϋμων και καταλιφθηϲη μονη · και ειϲ την γην εδαφιϲθηϲη ·
25Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war. 26And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she being desolate shall sit upon the ground.
