3:1For, behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water.
3:2The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient,

3:6When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand:
3:7In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.
3:8For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory.

3:23The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails.

3:17Therefore shall the Lord make the heades of the daughters of Zion balde, and the Lord shall discouer their secrete partes.
