18 Say to the king and the queen mother:m

Take a humble seat,

for your glorious crowns

have fallen from your heads.

19 The cities of the Negev are under siege;

no one can help them.

All of Judah has been taken into exile,

taken completely into exile.

20 Look up and see

those coming from the north.n

Where is the flock entrusted to you,

the sheep that were your pride?
