Isaiah 47:5-7
New International Reader's Version
5 The Lord says, “Queen city of the Babylonians,
go into a dark prison. Sit there quietly.
You will not be called
the queen of kingdoms anymore.
6 I was angry with my people.
I treated them as if they did not belong to me.
I handed them over to you.
And you did not show them any pity.
You even placed heavy loads on their old people.
7 You said, ‘I am queen forever!’
But you did not think about what you were doing.
You did not consider how things might turn out.
