3For behold, the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, ais going to remove from Jerusalem and JudahBoth 1supply and support, the whole2supply of breadAnd the whole3supply of water,2aThe mightyman and the man of war,The judge and the prophet,The diviner and the elder,3The commander of fifty and the 1highly respected man,The counselor and the wisecraftsman,And the experiencedenchanter.4And I will makeayoungmen their princes,And 1capriciouschildren will rule over them,5And the people will be aoppressed,Eachone by another, and eachone by his bneighbor;The youth will overwhelm the elderAnd the dishonorable, the honorable.6When a managrasps his brother in his father’shouse, saying,“You have a cloak, you shall be our ruler,And theseruins will be under your hand,”7He will 1protest on that day, saying,“I will not be your2,ahealer,For in my housethereisneitherbreadnorcloak;You should not appoint me ruler of the people.”
