What does Jeremiah 38:22 mean?

'All the women left in the palace of Judah’s king will be brought out to Babylon’s officials. They’ll say, “Your trusted friends have tricked you and overpowered you. Now your feet are stuck in the mud, and they’ve left you behind.”' Jeremiah 38:22 - Modern Text Bible

(Jeremiah describes a humiliating scene: the king’s women will be taken and will mock Zedekiah for being betrayed and abandoned.)
