1 For behold, the Lord God of hostsis taking away from Jerusalem and from Judahsupport and supply,all support of bread,and all support of water;
2 the mighty man and the soldier,the judge and the prophet,the diviner and the elder,
3 the captain of fiftyand the man of rank,the counselor and the skillful magicianand the expert in charms.
4 And I will make boys their princes,and infants shall rule over them.
5 And the people will oppress one another,every one his fellowand every one his neighbor;the youth will be insolent to the elder,and the despised to the honorable.
6 For a man will take hold of his brotherin the house of his father, saying:“You have a cloak;you shall be our leader,and this heap of ruinsshall be under your rule”;
