4 Our Redeemer, the Lord of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.
5 Sit in silence, and enter into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans! For you shall no longer be called the noblewoman of kingdoms.
6 I was angry with my people. I have polluted my inheritance, and I have given them into your hand. You have not shown mercy to them. You have greatly increased the burden of your yoke upon the elders.
7 And you have said: 'I will be a noblewoman forever.' You have not set these things upon your heart, and you have not remembered your end.
8 And now, hear these things, you who are delicate and have confidence, who say in your heart: 'I am, and there is no one greater than me. I will not sit as a widow, and I will not know barrenness.'
