Isaiah 3:19
their pendants, bracelets, and veils;

the pendants, and the bracelets, and the mufflers;
KJV
The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,
The chains - Margin, “sweet balls.” The word used here is derived from the verb נטף nâṭaph, to drop, to fall in drops, or to distil,” as juice from a plant. Hence, it means that which “resembles drops” - as pearls, or precious stones, used as ornaments for the neck or ears. We retain a similar word as applicable to the ornaments of the ears, by calling them “drops.” The Chaldee renders this “chains,” and so also the Vulgate.
