Context

The Humiliation of Babylon

³Your nakedness will be uncovered and your shame will be exposed. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.” ⁴Our Redeemer—the LORD of Hosts is His name— is the Holy One of Israel.

Summary

Isaiah 47:4 depicts the downfall of Babylon, once a proud and powerful nation, now facing humiliation and defeat. The verse symbolizes the consequences of pride, arrogance, and oppression, warning of the eventual judgment that awaits those who exalt themselves above others. It serves as a reminder of the fleeting nature of worldly power and the importance of humility before God. Ultimately, Isaiah 47:4 conveys the message that God's justice will prevail, bringing low the haughty and lifting up the humble.

Adam Clarke Bible Commentary

Our Redeemer "Our Avenger" - Here a chorus breaks in upon the midst of the subject, with a change of construction, as well as sentiment, from the longer to the shorter kind of verse, for one distich only; after which the former subject and style are resumed. See note on Isa 45:16 (note).

Isaiah 47:4

The Humiliation of Babylon

³Your nakedness will be uncovered and your shame will be exposed. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.” ⁴Our Redeemer—the LORD of Hosts is His name— is the Holy One of Israel.
