Because the daughters of Zion are haughty,
walking with heads held high
and seductive eyes,
going along with prancing steps,

of the daughters of Zion,
and the Lord will shave their foreheads bare. On that day the Lord will strip their finery: ankle bracelets, headbands, crescents, read more.

instead of beautifully styled hair, baldness;
instead of fine clothes, sackcloth;
instead of beauty, branding.

they want to take your life.
