39  You have ^wrenounced ^xthe covenant with your servant;

you have ^ydefiled his ^zcrown in the dust.

18  Say to ^jthe king and ^jthe queen mother:

“Take a lowly seat,

for ^kyour beautiful crown

has come down from your head.”

1  ^aHow lonely sits the city

that was full of people!

How like ^ba widow has she become,

she who was great among the nations!

She who was ^ca princess among the provinces

has become ^da slave.
