Isaiah 47:4 in context

Isaiah 47:1–7

1

“Come down and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon.

Sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans.

For you will no longer be called tender and delicate.

2

Take the millstones and grind flour.

Remove your veil, lift up your skirt, uncover your legs,

and wade through the rivers.

3

Your nakedness will be uncovered.

Yes, your shame will be seen.

I will take vengeance,

and will spare no one.”

4
Selected verse

Our Redeemer, the LORD of Armies is his name,

is the Holy One of Israel.

5

“Sit in silence, and go into darkness,

daughter of the Chaldeans.

For you shall no longer be called

the mistress of kingdoms.

6

I was angry with my people.

I profaned my inheritance

and gave them into your hand.

You showed them no mercy.

You laid a very heavy yoke on the aged.

7

You said, ‘I will be a princess forever,’

so that you didn’t lay these things to your heart,

nor did you remember the results.
