Isaiah 3:24
Instead of fragrance
What it says
Fragrance will become stench, fine dress will become sackcloth, and beauty will become branding.
What it is doing
This verse summarizes the humiliating reversal of luxury and beauty.
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;
