1. “Go down, sit in the dust, Virgin Daughter Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, queen city of the Babylonians. No more will you be called tender or delicate.
2. Take millstones and grind flour; take off your veil. Lift up your skirts, bare your legs, and wade through the streams.
3. Your nakedness will be exposed and your shame uncovered. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.”
4. Our Redeemer—the Lord Almighty is his name— is the Holy One of Israel.
5. “Sit in silence, go into darkness, queen city of the Babylonians; no more will you be called queen of kingdoms.
