¹⁶ Moreover, the Lord said, “Because the ^(A)daughters of Zion are haughty
And walk with ^[a]heads held high and seductive eyes,
And go along with mincing steps
And jingle the anklets on their feet,
¹⁷ The Lord will afflict the scalp of the daughters of Zion with scabs,
And the Lord will make their foreheads bare.”

²⁴ Now it will come about that instead of ^(E)balsam oil there will be a stench;
Instead of a belt, a rope;
Instead of ^(F)well-set hair, a ^(G)plucked-out scalp;
Instead of fine clothes, a ^(H)robe of sackcloth;
And branding instead of beauty.
²⁵ Your men will ^(I)fall by the sword
And your ^[c]mighty ones in battle.
²⁶ And her ^[d](J)gates will lament and mourn,
And she will ^(K)sit deserted on the ground.
