  • Isa 47:1-9 : 1 Come down and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground. There is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans, for you shall no more be called tender and delicate. 2 Take the millstones and grind meal; uncover your hair, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers. 3 Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yes, your shame shall be seen. I will take vengeance, and I will not meet you as a man. 4 As for our Redeemer, the LORD of hosts is His name, the Holy One of Israel. 5 Sit in silence and enter into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans, for you shall no more be called the lady of kingdoms. 6 I was angry with My people, I have defiled My inheritance and given them into your hand. You showed them no mercy; upon the elderly you have laid your yoke very heavily. 7 And you said, 'I shall be a lady forever,' so that you did not lay these things to heart, nor remember their end. 8 Therefore hear this now, you that are given to pleasures, that dwell carelessly, that say in your heart, 'I am, and there is none else besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, nor shall I know the loss of children.' 9 But these two things shall come to you in a moment, in one day: the loss of children and widowhood. They shall come upon you in their fullness for the multitude of your sorceries and for the great abundance of your enchantments. 10 For you have trusted in your wickedness; you have said, 'No one sees me.' Your wisdom and your knowledge have perverted you; and you have said in your heart, 'I am, and there is none else besides me.' 11 Therefore evil shall come upon you; you shall not know from where it rises. Trouble shall fall upon you; you shall not be able to put it off. Desolation shall come upon you suddenly, which you shall not know. 12 Stand now with your enchantments and with the multitude of your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth. Perhaps you will be able to profit, perhaps you may prevail. 13 You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators stand up and save you from these things that shall come upon you. 14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them. They shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame; there shall not be a coal to warm by, nor a fire to sit before. 15 Thus shall they be to you with whom you have labored, your merchants from your youth; they shall wander each one to his own quarter; none shall save you.
