Yesaya 47:7

47:7 You said,

‘I will rule forever as permanent queen!’ ¹ 

You did not think about these things; ² 

you did not consider how it would turn out. ³ 

Yesaya 47:10

47:10 You were complacent in your evil deeds; ⁴ 

you thought, ⁵  ‘No one sees me.’

Your self-professed ⁶  wisdom and knowledge lead you astray,

when you say, ‘I am unique! No one can compare to me!’ ⁷
