aSee ch. 32:9-11
Isaiah 3:16
16 The Lord said:aBecause bthe daughters of Zion are haughty
and walk with outstretched necks,
glancing wantonly with their eyes,
mincing along as they go,
ctinkling with their feet,
Lamentations 4:3-6
3 Even jackals offer the breast;they nurse their young;
but the daughter of my people has become cruel,
like the ostriches in the wilderness.
4 The tongue of the nursing infant dsticks
to the roof of its mouth for thirst;
ethe children beg for food,
but no one gives to them.
5 Those who once feasted on delicacies
perish in the streets;
fthose who were brought up in purple
embrace ash heaps.
6 gFor the chastisement ▼
▼Or iniquity
of the daughter of my people has been greaterthan the punishment ▼
▼Or sin
of Sodom,jwhich was overthrown in a moment,
and no hands were wrung for her. ▼
▼The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain
