“You clothed me with skin and flesh,

and wove me together with bones and tendons.

he may heap it up, but the righteous will wear it,

and the innocent will divide up his silver.

I clothed myself in righteousness,

and it enveloped me;

my just decisions were like a robe and a turban.

Do you give strength to the horse?

Do you adorn his neck with a mane?[fn]

Adorn yourself with majesty and splendor,

and clothe yourself with honor and glory.

Let those who rejoice at my misfortune

be disgraced and humiliated;

let those who exalt themselves over me

be clothed with shame and reproach.

The pastures are clothed with flocks

and the valleys covered with grain.

They shout in triumph; indeed, they sing.

The LORD reigns! He is robed in majesty;

the LORD is robed, enveloped in strength.

The world is firmly established;

it cannot be shaken.

My soul, bless the LORD!

LORD my God, you are very great;

you are clothed with majesty and splendor.

He wore cursing like his coat —

let it enter his body like water

and go into his bones like oil.

and may your faithful people shout for joy.

and grogginess will clothe them in rags.

She is not afraid for her household when it snows,

for all in her household are doubly clothed.[fn]

I have taken off my clothing.

How can I put it back on?

I have washed my feet.

How can I get them dirty?

On that day seven women

will seize one man, saying,

“We will eat our own bread

and provide our own clothing.

Just let us bear your name.

Take away our disgrace.”

“I will clothe him with your robe and tie your sash around him. I will hand your authority over to him, and he will be like a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

“Look up, and look around.

They all gather together; they come to you.

As I live” —

this is the LORD’s declaration —

“you will wear all your children[fn] as jewelry,

and put them on as a bride does.

I dress the heavens in black

and make sackcloth their covering.

Wake up, wake up!

Arm of the LORD, clothe yourself with strength.

Wake up as in days past,

as in generations long ago.

Wasn’t it you who hacked Rahab to pieces,

who pierced the sea monster?

“Wake up, wake up;

put on your strength, Zion!

Put on your beautiful garments,

Jerusalem, the holy city!

For the uncircumcised and the unclean

will no longer enter you.

I exult in my God;

for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation

and wrapped me in a robe of righteousness,

as a groom wears a turban

and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

And you, devastated one, what are you doing

that you dress yourself in scarlet,

that you adorn yourself with gold jewelry,

that you enhance your eyes with makeup?

You beautify yourself for nothing.

Your lovers reject you;

they intend to take your life.

Harness the horses;

mount the steeds;[fn]

take your positions with helmets on!

Polish the lances;

put on armor!

The king will mourn;

the prince will be clothed in grief;

and the hands of the people of the land will tremble.

I will deal with them according to their own conduct,

and I will judge them by their own standards.

Then they will know that I am the LORD.

“You eat the fat, wear the wool, and butcher the fattened animals, but you do not tend the flock.

“I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws, and bring you out with all your army, including horses and riders, who are all splendidly dressed, a huge assembly armed with large and small shields, all of them brandishing swords.

“Once the priests have entered, they are not to go out from the holy area to the outer court until they have removed the clothes they minister in, for these are holy. They are to put on other clothes before they approach the public area.”

“When they enter the gates of the inner court they are to wear linen garments; they must not have on them anything made of wool when they minister at the gates of the inner court and within it.

I looked up, and there was a man dressed in linen, with a belt of gold from Uphaz[fn] around his waist.
