In context

4Our Redeemer—the LORD of Hosts is His name— is the Holy One of Israel.

5“Sit in silence and go into darkness, O Daughter of the Chaldeans. For you will no longer be called the queen of kingdoms.

6I was angry with My people; I profaned My heritage, and I placed them under your control. You showed them no mercy; even on the elderly you laid a most heavy yoke.

7You said, ‘I will be queen forever.’ You did not take these things to heart or consider their outcome.

8So now hear this, O lover of luxury who sits securely, who says to herself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me. I will never be a widow or know the loss of children.’
