“Instead of fragrance there will be a stench; instead of a belt, a rope; instead of styled hair, baldness; instead of fine clothing, sackcloth; instead of beauty, shame.”
Isaiah 3:24 (BSB)
Context Reading
22their festive robes, capes, cloaks, and purses; 23and their mirrors, linen garments, tiaras, and shawls. 24Instead of fragrance there will be a stench; instead of a belt, a rope; instead of styled hair, baldness; instead of fine clothing, sackcloth; instead of beauty, shame. 25Your men will fall by the sword, and your warriors in battle. 26And the gates of Zion will lament and mourn; destitute, she will sit on the ground.
