47Come down and sit in the dust, virgin daughter Babylon! Sit on the ground without a throne, daughter Chaldea! For you shall no more be called tender and delicate.H3381H3427H6083H1330H1323H894H3427H776H3678H1323H3778H3254H7121H7390H60282Take the millstones and grind meal, remove your veil, strip off your robe, uncover your legs, pass through the rivers.H3947H7347H2912H7058H1540H6777H2834H7640H1540H7785H5674H51043Your nakedness shall be uncovered, and your shame shall be seen. I will take vengeance, and I will spare no one.H6172H1540H2781H7200H3947H5359H6293H1204Our Redeemer—the LORD of hosts is his name—is the Holy One of Israel.H1350H3068H6635H8034H6918H34785Sit in silence, and go into darkness, daughter Chaldea! For you shall no more be called the mistress of kingdoms.H3427H1748H935H2822H1323H3778H3254H7121H1404H44676I was angry with my people, I profaned my heritage; I gave them into your hand, you showed them no mercy; on the aged you made your yoke exceedingly heavy.H7107H5971H2490H5159H5414H3027H7760H7356H2205H3966H3513H59237You said, "I shall be mistress forever," so that you did not lay these things to heart or remember their end.H559H1404H5769H7760H3820H2142H3198Now therefore hear this, you lover of pleasures, who sit securely, who say in your heart, "I am, and there is no one besides me; I shall not sit as a widow or know the loss of children"—H8085H5719H3427H983H559H3824H657H3427H490H3045H79089both these things shall come upon you in a moment, in one day: the loss of children and widowhood shall come upon you in full measure, in spite of your many sorceries and the great power of your enchantments.H8147H935H7281H259H3117H7908H489H935H8537H7230H3785H3966H6109H226710You felt secure in your wickedness; you said, "No one sees me." Your wisdom and your knowledge led you astray, and you said in your heart, "I am, and there is no one besides me."H982H7451H559H7200H2451H1847H7725H559H3820H65711But evil shall come upon you, which you cannot charm away; disaster shall fall upon you, which you will not be able to ward off; and ruin shall come on you suddenly, of which you know nothing.H7451H935H3045H7837H1943H5307H3201H3722H7722H935H6597H304512Stand fast in your enchantments and your many sorceries, with which you have labored from your youth; perhaps you may be able to succeed, perhaps you may inspire terror.H5975H2267H7230H3785H834H3021H5271H3201H3276H620613You are wearied with your many consultations; let those who study the heavens stand up and save you, those who gaze at the stars, and at each new moon predict what shall befall you.H3811H7230H6098H1895H8064H2374H3556H2320H3045H5975H3467H93514See, they are like stubble, the fire consumes them; they cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame. No coal for warming oneself is this, no fire to sit before!H7179H784H8313H5337H5315H3027H3852H1513H2552H217H342715Such to you are those with whom you have labored, who have trafficked with you from your youth; they all wander about in their own paths; there is no one to save you.H3021H5503H5271H8582H376H5676H3467
