Isaiah 47:1-6 (GOD'S WORD Translation)
View In My Bible
1
Go, sit in the dirt, virgin princess of Babylon! Sit on the ground, not on a throne, princess of the Babylonians! You will no longer be called soft and delicate.
2
Take millstones and grind flour. Remove your veil. Take off your skirt. Uncover your legs, and cross the river.
3
People will see you naked. People will see your shame. I will take revenge. I won't spare anyone.
4
Our defender is the Holy One of Israel. His name is the LORD of Armies.
5
Go into the dark, and sit in silence, princess of the Babylonians! You will no longer be called the queen of kingdoms.
6
I was angry with my people. I dishonored those who belong to me. I put them under your control. You showed them no mercy. You placed a heavy burden on old people.
