Dual Panel1"Come<3381> down<3381> and sit<3427> in the dust<6083>, O virgin<1330> daughter<1323> of Babylon<894>; Sit<3427> on the ground<776> without<369> a throne<3678>, O daughter<1323> of the Chaldeans<3778>! For you shall no<3808> longer<3254> be called<7121> tender<7390> and delicate<6028>.
2"Take<3947> the millstones<7347> and grind<2912> meal<7058>. Remove<1540> your veil<6777>, strip<2834> off<2834> the skirt<7640>, Uncover<1540> the leg<7785>, cross<5674> the rivers<5104>.
3"Your nakedness<6172> will be uncovered<1540>, Your shame<2781> also<1571> will be exposed<7200>; I will take<3947> vengeance<5359> and will not spare<6293> a man<120>."
4Our Redeemer<1350>, the LORD<3068> of hosts<6635> is His name<8034>, The Holy<6918> One<6918> of Israel<3478>.
5"Sit<3427> silently<1748>, and go<935> into darkness<2822>, O daughter<1323> of the Chaldeans<3778>, For you will no<3808> longer<3254> be called<7121> The queen<1404> of kingdoms<4467>.
6"I was angry<7107> with My people<5971>, I profaned<2490> My heritage<5159> And gave<5414> them into your hand<3027>. You did not show<7760> mercy<7356> to them, On the aged<2205> you made<3513> your yoke<5923> very<3966> heavy<3513>.
7"Yet you said<559>, 'I will be a queen<1404> forever<5703><5769>.' These<428> things<428> you did not consider<7760><5921><3820> Nor<3808> remember<2142> the outcome<319> of them.
8"Now<6258>, then, hear<8085> this<384>, you sensual<5719> one<5719>, Who dwells<3427> securely<983>, Who says<559> in your heart<3824>, 'I am, and there<657> is no<657> one<657> besides<5750> me. I will not sit<3427> as a widow<490>, Nor<3808> know<3045> loss<7908> of children<7908>.'
9"But these<428> two<8147> things<8147> will come<935> on you suddenly<7281> in one<259> day<3117>: Loss<7908> of children<7908> and widowhood<489>. They will come<935> on you in full<8537> measure<8537> In spite of your many<7230> sorceries<3785>, In spite of the great<3966> power<6109> of your spells<2267>.
10"You felt<982> secure<982> in your wickedness<7463> and said<559>, 'No<369> one<369> sees<7200> me,' Your wisdom<2451> and your knowledge<1847>, they have deluded<7725> you; For you have said<559> in your heart<3820>, 'I am, and there<657> is no<657> one<657> besides<5750> me.'
11"But evil<7463> will come<935> on you Which you will not know<3045> how to charm<7837> away<7837>; And disaster<1943> will fall<5307> on you For which you cannot<3201><3808> atone<3722>; And destruction<7724> about which you do not know<3045> Will come<935> on you suddenly<6597>.
12"Stand<5975> fast now<4994> in your spells<2267> And in your many<7230> sorceries<3785> With which<834> you have labored<3021> from your youth<5271>; Perhaps<194> you will be able<3201> to profit<3276>, Perhaps<194> you may cause<6206> trembling<6206>.
13"You are wearied<3811> with your many<7230> counsels<6098>; Let now<4994> the astrologers<1895><8064>, Those who prophesy<2372> by the stars<3556>, Those who predict<3045> by the new<2320> moons<2320>, Stand<5975> up and save<3467> you from what<834> will come<935> upon you.
14"Behold<2009>, they have become<1961> like stubble<7179>, Fire<784> burns<8313> them; They cannot<3808> deliver<5337> themselves<5315> from the power<3027> of the flame<3852>; There<369> will be no<369> coal<1513> to warm<2552> by Nor a fire<217> to sit<3427> before<5048>!
15"So<3651> have those become<1961> to you with whom<834> you have labored<3021>, Who have trafficked<5503> with you from your youth<5271>; Each<376> has wandered<8582> in his own way<5676>; There<369> is none<369> to save<3467> you.
