1

aComeh3381 downh3381 and sith3427 in the dusth6083, O  bvirginh1330  cdaughterh1323 of Babylonh894; Sith3427 on the groundh776 withouth369 a throneh3678, O daughterh1323 of the Chaldeansh3778! For you shall noh3808 longerh3254 be calledh7121  dtenderh7390 and delicateh6028.

2

"Takeh3947 the  amillstonesh7347 and  bgrindh2912 mealh7058. Removeh1540 your  cveilh6777,  dstriph2834 offh2834 the skirth7640, Uncoverh1540 the legh7785, crossh5674a the riversh5104.

3

"Your  anakednessh6172 will be uncoveredh1540, Your shameh2781 alsoh1571 will be exposedh7200; I will  btakeh3947 vengeanceh5359 and will not  1spareh6293 a manh120."

4

Our  aRedeemerh1350, the LORDh3068 of hostsh6635 is His nameh8034, The Holyh6918 Oneh6918 of Israelh3478.

5

aSith3427 silentlyh1748, and goh935 into  bdarknessh2822, O daughterh1323 of the Chaldeansh3778, For you will noh3808 longerh3254 be calledh7121 The  cqueenh1404 of  dkingdomsh4467.

6

"I was angryh7107 with My peopleh5971a, I profanedh2490c My heritageh5159 And gaveh5414 them into your handh3027. You did not showh7760 mercyh7356 to them, On the  aagedh2205 you madeh3513 your yokeh5923 veryh3966 heavyh3513.

7

"Yet you saidh559, `I will be a  aqueenh1404 foreverh5703h5769.' Theseh428 thingsh428 you did not  bconsiderh7760h5921h3820 Norh3808 rememberh2142 the  coutcomeh319 of  1them.

8

"Nowh6258, then, hearh8085 thish384, you  asensualh5719 oneh5719, Who  bdwellsh3427 securelyh983, Who saysh559 in  1your hearth3824, ` cI am, and thereh657 is noh657 oneh657 besidesh5750 me. I will  dnot sith3427 as a widowh490, Norh3808 knowh3045 lossh7908 of childrenh7908.'

9

"But theseh428  atwoh8147 thingsh8147 will comeh935 on you  bsuddenlyh7281 in oneh259 dayh3117: Lossh7908 of childrenh7908 and widowhoodh489. They will comeh935 on you in fullh8537 measureh8537 In spite of your manyh7230  csorceriesh3785, In spite of the greath3966 powerh6109 of your spellsh2267.

10

"You felth982  asecureh982 in your wickednessh7463a and saidh559, ` bNoh369 oneh369 seesh7200 me,' Your  cwisdomh2451 and your knowledgeh1847,  1they have deludedh7725 you; For you have saidh559 in your hearth3820, ` dI am, and thereh657 is noh657 oneh657 besidesh5750 me.'

11

"But  aevilh7463a will comeh935 on you Which you will not knowh3045 how to charmh7837 awayh7837; And disasterh1943 will fallh5307 on you For which you cannoth3201h3808 atoneh3722a; And  bdestructionh7724b about which you do not knowh3045 Will comeh935 on you  csuddenlyh6597.

12

"Standh5975 fast nowh4994 in your  aspellsh2267 And in your manyh7230 sorceriesh3785 With whichh834 you have laboredh3021 from your youthh5271; Perhapsh194 you will be ableh3201 to profith3276, Perhapsh194 you may causeh6206 tremblingh6206.

13

"You are  aweariedh3811 with your manyh7230 counselsh6098; Let nowh4994 the  bastrologersh1895h8064, Those who prophesyh2372 by the starsh3556, Those who predicth3045 by the newh2320 moonsh2320, Standh5975 up and  csaveh3467 you from whath834 will comeh935 upon you.

14

"Beholdh2009, they have becomeh1961  alike stubbleh7179,  bFireh784 burnsh8313 them; They cannoth3808 deliverh5337 themselvesh5315 from the powerh3027 of the flameh3852; Thereh369 will be  cnoh369 coalh1513 to warmh2552 by Nor a fireh217 to sith3427 beforeh5048!

15

"Soh3651 have those becomeh1961 to you with whomh834 you have laboredh3021, Who have  atraffickedh5503 with you from your youthh5271; Eachh376 has wanderedh8582 in his own  1wayh5676; Thereh369 is  bnoneh369 to saveh3467 you.
