Isaiah 3:8
For Jerusalem has stumbled and Judah has fallen because they spoke and acted against the Lord, defying His glorious presence.
Note Hebrew defying the eyes of His glory
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the Lord, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen; because their tongue and their doings are against the Lord, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
Note When rendered in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, “Lord” or “God” is the translation of God’s Proper Name (Hebrew “יהוה”, usually pronounced Yahweh).
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen; because their tongue and their doings are against Jehovah, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
