Isaiah 14:9-17
9Sheol beneath is eager to meet you upon your arrival. It stirs the spirits of the dead to greet you— all the rulers of the earth. It makes all the kings of the nations rise from their thrones.10They will all respond to you, saying, “You too have become weak, as we are; you have become like us!”11Your pomp has been brought down to Sheol, along with the music of your harps. Maggots are your bed and worms your blanket.
12How you have fallen from heaven,O day star,1 son of the dawn!You have been cut down to the ground,O destroyer of nations.13You said in your heart:“I will ascend to the heavens;I will raise my throneabove the stars of God.I will sit on the mount of assembly,in the far reaches of the north.214I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;I will make myself like the Most High.”
15But you will be brought down to Sheol,to the lowest depths of the Pit.16Those who see you will stare;they will ponder your fate:“Is this the man who shook the earthand made the kingdoms tremble,17who turned the world into a desertand destroyed its cities,who refused to let the captivesreturn to their homes?”
