Sit in the dirt, O virgin[a] daughter Babylon Sit on the ground, not on a throne, O daughter of the Babylonians! Indeed,[b] you will no longer be called delicate and pampered. " The footnotes NET Bible says: "In the extended metaphor of this chapter, where Babylon is personified as a queen (vv. 5, 7), she is depicted as being both a wife and mother (vv. 8-9). As a virgin daughter, she also sees herself so strong that she will never suffer a defeat. | |
