Isaiah 14:7-13

7The whole earth is calm and at rest; people shout with a ringing cry.

8Even the cypresses and the cedars of Lebanon rejoice over you: “Since you have been laid low, no lumberjack has come against us.”

9Sheol below is eager to greet your coming, stirring up the spirits of the departed for you — all the rulers of the earth — making all the kings of the nations rise from their thrones.

10They all respond to you, saying, “You too have become as weak as we are; you have become like us!

11Your splendor has been brought down to Sheol, along with the music of your harps. Maggots are spread out under you, and worms cover you.”

12Shining morning star, how you have fallen from the heavens! You destroyer of nations, you have been cut down to the ground.

13You said to yourself, “I will ascend to the heavens; I will set up my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the mount of the gods’ assembly, in the remotest parts of the North.
