Isaiah 47

1Come downH3381, and sitH3427 in the dustH6083, O virginH1330 daughterH1323 of BabylonH894, sitH3427 on the groundH776: there is no throneH3678, O daughterH1323 of the ChaldeansH3778: for thou shalt no moreH3254 be calledH7121 tenderH7390 and delicateH6028. 2TakeH3947 the millstonesH7347, and grindH2912 mealH7058: uncoverH1540 thy locksH6777, make bareH2834 the legH7640, uncoverH1540 the thighH7785, pass overH5674 the riversH5104. 3Thy nakednessH6172 shall be uncoveredH1540, yea, thy shameH2781 shall be seenH7200: I will takeH3947 vengeanceH5359, and I will not meetH6293 thee as a manH120. 4As for our redeemerH1350, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his nameH8034, the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478. 5SitH3427 thou silentH1748, and getH935 thee into darknessH2822, O daughterH1323 of the ChaldeansH3778: for thou shalt no moreH3254 be calledH7121, The ladyH1404 of kingdomsH4467. 6I was angryH7107 with my peopleH5971, I have pollutedH2490 my inheritanceH5159, and givenH5414 them into thy handH3027: thou didst showH7760 them no mercyH7356; upon the ancientH2205 hast thou veryH3966 heavilyH3513 laid thy yokeH5923.

7And thou saidstH559, I shall be a ladyH1404 for everH5769: so that thou didst not layH7760 these things to thy heartH3820, neither didst rememberH2142 its latter endH319. 8Therefore hearH8085 now this, thou that art given to pleasuresH5719, that dwellestH3427 securelyH983, that sayestH559 in thy heartH3824, I am, and none elseH657 besides me; I shall not sitH3427 as a widowH490, neither shall I knowH3045 the loss of childrenH7908: 9But these twoH8147 things shall comeH935 to thee in a momentH7281 in oneH259 dayH3117, the loss of childrenH7908, and widowhoodH489: they shall comeH935 upon thee in their perfectionH8537 for the multitudeH7230 of thy sorceriesH3785, and for the greatH3966 abundanceH6109 of thy enchantmentsH2267. 10For thou hast trustedH982 in thy wickednessH7451: thou hast saidH559, None seethH7200 me. Thy wisdomH2451 and thy knowledgeH1847, it hath pervertedH7725 thee; and thou hast saidH559 in thy heartH3820, I am, and none elseH657 besides me.1 11Therefore shall evilH7451 comeH935 upon thee; thou shalt not knowH3045 from where it risethH7837: and mischiefH1943 shall fallH5307 upon thee; thou shalt not be ableH3201 to put it offH3722: and desolationH7722 shall comeH935 upon thee suddenlyH6597, which thou shalt not knowH3045.23 12StandH5975 now with thy enchantmentsH2267, and with the multitudeH7230 of thy sorceriesH3785, in whichH834 thou hast labouredH3021 from thy youthH5271; if thou shalt be ableH3201 to profitH3276, if thou mayest prevailH6206. 13Thou art weariedH3811 in the multitudeH7230 of thy counselsH6098. Let now the astrologersH1895H8064, the stargazersH2374H3556, the monthlyH2320 prognosticatorsH3045, stand upH5975, and saveH3467 thee from these things that shall comeH935 upon thee.45 14Behold, they shall be as stubbleH7179; the fireH784 shall burnH8313 them; they shall not deliverH5337 themselvesH5315 from the powerH3027 of the flameH3852: there shall not be a coalH1513 to warmH2552 at, nor fireH217 to sitH3427 before it.6 15Thus shall they be to thee with whom thou hast labouredH3021, even thy merchantsH5503, from thy youthH5271: they shall wanderH8582 every oneH376 to his quarterH5676; none shall saveH3467 thee.
