Isaiah 3:3

3 captains of groups of fifty,
the respected citizens, ^{▼▼ Heb “the ones lifted up with respect to the face.” For another example of the Hebrew idiom, see 2 Kgs 5:1.}
advisers and those skilled in magical arts, ^{▼▼ Heb “and the wise with respect to magic.” On the meaning of חֲרָשִׁים (kharashim, “magic”), see HALOT 358 s.v. III חרשׁ. Some understand here a homonym, meaning “craftsmen.” In this case, one could translate, “skilled craftsmen” (cf. NIV, NASB).}
and those who know incantations.
