# Isaiah 47 (New King James Version)
The Humiliation of Babylon
##### Chapter 47
###### 1 "Come down and sit in the dust,
O virgin daughter of Babylon;
Sit on the ground without a throne,
O daughter of the Chaldeans!
For you shall no more be called
Tender and delicate.
###### 2 Take the millstones and grind meal.
Remove your veil,
Take off the skirt,
Uncover the thigh,
Pass through the rivers.
###### 3 Your nakedness shall be uncovered,
Yes, your shame will be seen;
I will take vengeance,
And I will not arbitrate with a man."
###### 4 _As for_ our Redeemer, the Lord of hosts _is_ His name,
The Holy One of Israel.
###### 5 "Sit in silence, and go into darkness,
O daughter of the Chaldeans;
For you shall no longer be called
The Lady of Kingdoms.
###### 6 I was angry with My people;
I have profaned My inheritance,
And given them into your hand.
You showed them no mercy;
On the elderly you laid your yoke very heavily.
###### 7 And you said, 'I shall be a lady forever,'
_So_ that you did not take these _things_ to heart,
Nor remember the latter end of them.
###### 8 "Therefore hear this now, _you who are_ given to pleasures,
Who dwell securely,
Who say in your heart, 'I _am,_ and _there is_ no one 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
Because of the multitude of your sorceries,
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 warped you;
And you have said in your heart,
'I _am,_ and _there is_ no one else besides me.'
###### 11 Therefore evil shall come upon you;
You shall not know from where it arises.
And trouble shall fall upon you;
You will not be able to put it off.
And desolation shall come upon you suddenly,
_Which_ you shall not know.
###### 12 "Stand now with your enchantments
And the multitude of your sorceries,
In which you have labored from your youth--
Perhaps you will be able to profit,
Perhaps you will prevail.
###### 13 You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels;
Let now the astrologers, the stargazers,
_And_ the monthly prognosticators
Stand up and save you
From what 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;
_It shall_ not _be_ a coal to be warmed 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 quarter.
No one shall save you.
