The Removal of Support and Leadership

Isaiah 3:1-7

For, lo, the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Is turning aside from Jerusalem, And from Judah, stay and staff, Every stay of bread, and every stay of water.

Hero and man of war, judge and prophet, And diviner and elder,

Head of fifty, and accepted of faces, And counsellor, and the wise of artificers, And the intelligent of charmers.

And I have made youths their heads, And sucklings rule over them.

And the people hath exacted--man upon man, Even a man on his neighbour, Enlarge themselves do the youths against the aged, And the lightly esteemed against the honoured.

When one layeth hold on his brother, Of the house of his father, by the garment, `Come, a ruler thou art to us, And this ruin is under thy hand.'

He lifteth up, in that day, saying: `I am not a binder up, And in my house is neither bread nor garment, Ye do not make me a ruler of the people.'
