Isaiah 3:20 in context

The verses around it, from Isaiah 3.

16 The LORD also says: “Because the daughters of Zion are haughty—walking with heads held high and wanton eyes, prancing and skipping as they go, jingling the bracelets on their ankles—

17 the Lord will bring sores on the heads of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will make their foreheads bare.”

18 In that day the Lord will take away their finery: their anklets and headbands and crescents;

19 their pendants, bracelets, and veils;

20 their headdresses, ankle chains, and sashes; their perfume bottles and charms;

21 their signet rings and nose rings;

22 their festive robes, capes, cloaks, and purses;

23 and their mirrors, linen garments, tiaras, and shawls.

24 Instead of fragrance there will be a stench; instead of a belt, a rope; instead of styled hair, baldness; instead of fine clothing, sackcloth; instead of beauty, shame.
