“I will give children to be their princes,
And babes shall rule over them. The people will be oppressed,
Every one by another and every one by his neighbor;
The child will be insolent toward the elder,
And the base toward the honorable.”
Isaiah 3:4-5
Damn that’s good stuff.
Nice scripture. Wow, Isaiah knew these times well.
“I will give children to be their princes,
And babes shall rule over them. The people will be oppressed,
Every one by another and every one by his neighbor;
The child will be insolent toward the elder,
And the base toward the honorable.”
Isaiah 3:4-5
NIV Translation regarding the consequences of God’s judgment in these verses: “I will make boys their officials. Mere children will govern them. People will oppress each other..Man against man, neighbor against neighbor. The young will rise up against the old, the base against the honorable.”
Isaiah 5:12-13 speaks to our current conditions, as well. “Youths oppress my people. Women rule over them. O, my people your guides lead you astray; they turn you from the path. The Lord takes his place in court; He rises to judge the people.”
As far as I can see, the day of judgment is very close for the US. Our population is being ripped of reason and civilized behavior through a hostile media, which displays bullying against whomever they can around the clock; Science is being politicized through the lies of climate change and through the re-gendering of our children. We cannot save most who are now addicted to opioids. It is the leprosy of our time. Never before have I seen such an out and out attack without real cause against a President or high official, elected by the people according to our laws. Pure evil is on display through the greatest weapon existing in our world, the tongue. Those who read the Biblical Scriptures know what is coming if God’s people do not intervene, through prayer enough to cause Him to withhold his hand against the sin running rampant in this nation. My opinion.
It’s easier to understand, and makes more sense, in the King James Version;
4 And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.
5 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honorable.
