1Come down and sit in the dust, virgin daughter Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans. For they will no longer call you tender and delicate.

2Take the millstones and grind flour; uncover your veil, strip off your skirt, uncover the leg, cross over the rivers.

3Your nakedness will be uncovered; indeed, your disgrace will be seen. I will take vengeance, and I will spare no man.
