from A Warning to the Daughters of Zion, Isaiah 3:16-26

In context

16The LORD also says: 17the Lord will bring sores 18In that day the Lord will take away their finery: 19their pendants, bracelets, and veils; 20their headdresses, ankle chains, and sashes; 21their signet rings and nose rings; 22their festive robes, capes, cloaks, and purses; 23and their mirrors, linen garments, tiaras, and shawls. 24Instead of fragrance 25Your men will fall by the sword, 26And the gates of Zion will lament and mourn;
