3Your nakedness will be uncovered.Yes, your shame will be seen.I will take vengeance,and will spare no one.” 4Our Redeemer, Yahweh of Armies is his name,is the Holy One of Israel. 5“Sit in silence, and go into darkness,daughter of the Chaldeans.For you shall no longer be calledthe mistress of kingdoms. 6I was angry with my people.I profaned my inheritanceand gave them into your hand.You showed them no mercy.You laid a very heavy yoke on the aged. 7You said, ‘I will be a princess forever,’so that you didn’t lay these things to your heart,nor did you remember the results.
