Isaiah 47:5-7
New King James Version

5 “Sit in (A)silence, and go into darkness,
O daughter of the Chaldeans;
(B)For you shall no longer be called
The Lady of Kingdoms.
6 (C)I was angry with My people;
(D)I have profaned My inheritance,
And given them into your hand.
You showed them no mercy;
(E)On the elderly you laid your yoke very heavily.
7 And you said, ‘I shall be (F)a lady forever,’
So that you did not (G)take these things to heart,
(H)Nor remember the latter end of them.
