Isaiah 47:5 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Sit thou silent, through grief and shame, and as mourners use to do, Job 2:13. Cease thy vaunting and insolent speeches; thou canst say nothing for thine own justification. Get thee into darkness; thou shalt go into an obscure, disconsolate, and calamitous condition. Thou shalt no more be called, The lady of kingdoms; the chief and glory of all kingdoms, as Isaiah 13:19, the most large, and potent, and glorious empire of the world, as thou hast been.

Isaiah 47:5

5 Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called, The lady of kingdoms.
