Isaiah 47:6-8

Lexham English Bible

⁶ I was angry with my people;
    I profaned my inheritance,
and I gave them into your hand.
    You did not give^[a] them mercy;
on the aged you made your yoke very heavy.
⁷     And you said, “I shall be an eternal mistress forever!”
You did not set these things upon your heart;
    you did not remember its end.
⁸ Therefore now hear this, luxuriant one who sits^[b] in security,
    who says^[c] in her heart, “I am, and besides me there is no one.
I shall not sit as a widow,
    and I shall not know the loss of children.”
