Isaiah 47:1-3
New International Reader's Version
Isaiah 47:1-3
New International Reader's Version
Babylon Will Fall
47 “City of Babylon,
go down and sit in the dust.
Leave your throne and sit on the ground.
Queen city of the Babylonians,
your life will not be comfortable
and easy anymore.
2 Get millstones and grind some flour like a female slave.
Take off your veil.
Lift up your skirts. Make your legs bare.
Wade through the streams.
3 Everyone will see your naked body.
Everyone will see your shame.
I will pay you back for what you did.
I will not spare any of your people.”
New International Reader's Version (NIRV)
