In Daniel chapter 5, we read that the king of Babylon throws a party. What isn't commonly known is that this is happening while the city is surrounded by invaders. They are confident that nothing will happen and in a final act against God desecrate the article from the temple. They were guilty before and God was bringing judgment but refused to see that it could happen. God however shows the king that he will fall and sure enough that night the city falls. This is what God warned them about here in Isaiah 47. It also reminds the people of God never to become arrogant because what you believe is impossible can happen.
