Come down and sit in the dust,
O virgin daughter of Babylon;
sit on the ground without a throne,
O daughter of the Chaldeans!
For you shall no more be called
tender and delicate.

put off your veil,
strip off your robe, uncover your legs,
pass through the rivers.

the mistress of kingdoms.

Сиди мовчки, сховайся в темряві, дочко халдейська, бо верховною над царствами тебе більше не зватимуть!

I profaned my heritage;
I gave them into your hand;
you showed them no mercy;
on the aged you made your yoke exceedingly heavy.

Я був прогнівався на мій народ, я осквернив мою спадщину, я віддав їх тобі в руки. Та ти не мала над ним милосердя, і на старого тяжке ярмо накладала.

so that you did not lay these things to heart
or remember their end.

who sit securely,
who say in your heart,
“I am, and there is no one besides me;
I shall not sit as a widow
or know the loss of children”:

These two things shall come to you
in a moment, in one day;

shall come upon you in full measure,
in spite of your many sorceries
and the great power of your enchantments.

you said, “No one sees me”;
your wisdom and your knowledge led you astray,

which you will not know how to charm away;
disaster shall fall upon you,

От і прийде на тебе лихо, і ти не знатимеш, як відчепитися від нього. Біда впаде на тебе, та ти не зможеш її відвернути. Нещастя несподівано спіткає тебе, а про нього ти й не гадаєш.

let them stand forth and save you,
those who divide the heavens,
who gaze at the stars,

what shall come upon you.

from the power of the flame.
No coal for warming oneself is this,
no fire to sit before!

Such to you are those with whom you have labored,
who have done business with you from your youth;
they wander about, each in his own direction;
there is no one to save you.
