Isaiah 3

Isaiah 3

1 Just as food is for the support of everyone, and water is for the support of all; even the Adoni (of the earth) from Jehovah of (heavenly) army shall be the support for Jerusalem and Judah, but they will turn away from Him, with Whom is their (walking)-staff. 

2 Warriors are for a battle, and aged-men are to judge men, but your prophets are divining/are into enchantment. 

3 A wise head-person, having devised in silence, on FIFTY (Jubilee) will understand and will lift up his face, with soft-speech to counsel others on it.

4 Boys are the ones who give a prank/a funny trickish-surprise but head-persons are to rule; - 

5 - when honorable/weighty things within our people are trivialized, when a man is oppressed by neighbors, when a boy behave proudly to an aged-man, and it was the same from a man to another man, 

6 when there is an obstacle/hindrance, because the professional-officer who is to handle a (case) of a GARMENT which is in the hand of someone, is a brother, even of the same father and under the same house to the man;

7 there will be a day, when professional-officer that will be put/ordained over our people will lift up the (case) of the GARMENT over bread from his household and will say to whosoever, to wrap it up firmly.

8 the Eyes of Jehovah is embittered towards the things of glory in your tongues and doings/inventions. Therefore, Jerusalem and Judah will fall down due to tottering/systemic errors. 

9 oh no! If someone had boldly declared the sins of souls that were treated with evil in Sodom to them, how would their response to the awareness/consciousness of it be, but it was concealed from their face.

10 it is said, the Righteous shall eat the fruit of the good things of his doings/inventions.

11 oh no, to the wicked! For the reward of the evil he has done with his hands.

12 to be honest, a woman had ruled over my people, because they have gone astray from the way, as she severely overdid it in oppressing them, when some of our people were swallowed up in that path. (2King 11).

13 there should be a Justice of law that will be stationed around Jehovah to contend and stand for our people, 

14 the head-persons and aged-men of my people that will come to the house of Jehovah to kindle HIS verdicts on the poor and things in the vineyards, instead of forceful-robbery.

15 Thus says, Jehovah of (heavenly) army: will the people be crushed in the face of My Adonay, just like it is for the Poor who are crushing/grinding meal?

16 daughters of Zion are proud like ostriches, walking around tilting/inclining their eyes and neck, even with tinkling-anklets they walk by taking short steps/coquettishly with their feet. So, it is false/a sham to say that, they are walking with Jehovah.

17 the daughters of Zion who were seduced with bread to make their scalp bare will be annexed to the Adonay from Jehovah;

18 in the days of the Adonay, they will turn away from ornaments/splendor of tinkling anklets, into thin-head-scarf like moon-crescent, and - 

19 - a head or face-veil/hijab, with a dropping-pendant as of a princess/head mistress. 

20 also from embellishments in a marching parade, unto a bond/connection by soft-speech to the souls in their households. 

21 from nose-rings on nostrils unto (finger)-rings/signets; 

22 and from a fancy/luxury garments to a wrapper and women-head-scarf. And just like, from engraving/etching letters - 

23 - on wooden-sheet unto sheets of paper, and from a shawl over our shoulders unto whinny turban/head-dress.

24 And, as we have taken action/moved from things of rottenness unto spicery perfumes, even from simpleton-age into activities on a solid piece of block, girded with belt/rachet mechanism, so also, it shall be from sackcloth and baldness (state of mourning) into beauty/splendor.

25 and desolation of our adults who have fallen down in battle shall be unto gallantry/heroism.

26 and those who have been sitting down on the ground, where they lament shall be exonerated/acquitted of punishment by favor at the gate.
