^5 (A)Sit in silence, and go into darkness,
    O daughter of ^(B)the Chaldeans;
for you shall no more be called
    ^(C)the mistress of kingdoms.

¹⁹ And Babylon, ^(A)the glory of kingdoms,
    the splendour and pomp of the Chaldeans,
will be ^(B)like Sodom and Gomorrah
    when God overthrew them.
