Isaiah 47:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ Sit silently, and go into darkness,
    O daughter of the Chaldeans;
for you shall no more be called
    the queen of kingdoms.
⁶ I was angry with My people;
    I have polluted My inheritance
and given them into your hand.
    You did not show them mercy;
on the aged
    you have laid your yoke very heavily.
⁷ You said, “I shall be a queen forever,”
    but you did not take these things to heart,
    nor remember the outcome of them.
