Isaiah 3:1
Douay-Rheims
For behold the sovereign the Lord of hosts shall take away from Jerusalem, and from Juda the valiant and the strong, the whole strength of bread, and the whole strength of water.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
H. meaning staff, is here used in both genders to denote every kind of staff. V. lays aside the figure* and refers it to those who are valiant and strong. The text repeats the term, with the addition of bread and of water, signifying that all support of life shall be withdrawn.
