Isaiah 47:2

Babylon's Fall

¹ “Come down and sit in the dust,
O virgin daughter of Babylon;
Sit on the ground [in abject humiliation]; there is no throne for you,
O daughter of the Chaldeans,
For you will no longer be called tender and delicate.
² 
“Take millstones [as a female slave does] and grind meal;
Remove your veil, strip off the skirt,
Uncover the leg, cross the rivers [at the command of your captors].
³
“Your nakedness will be uncovered,
Your shame will also be exposed;
I will take vengeance and will spare no man.”
