Isaiah 14:6-20

6He that smote the peoplesH5971 in wrathH5678 with a relentless stroke, he that ruled the nationsH1471 in angerH639, is persecuted unsparingly.

7The whole earthH776 is at restH5117, is quietH8252: they breakH6476 forthH6476 into singing.

8Even the cypressesH1265 rejoiceH8055 at thee, the cedarsH730 of LebanonH3844, [saying,] Since thou art laidH7901 downH7901, no feller is comeH5927 up against us.

9SheolH7585 from beneath is moved for thee to meet [thee] at thy comingH935, stirring up the dead for thee, all the he-goats of the earthH776; making to riseH6965 from their thronesH3678 all the kingsH4428 of the nationsH1471.

10All of them shall answerH6030 and sayH559 unto thee, Art thou alsoH1571 become powerless as we; art thou become like unto us!

11— Thy pomp is broughtH3381 downH3381 to SheolH7585, the noise of thy lyres: the maggotH7415 is spreadH3331 under thee, and wormsH8438 cover thee.

12HowH349 art thou fallenH5307 from heavenH8064, Lucifer, sonH1121 of the morning! Thou art cutH1438 down to the groundH776, that didst prostrate the nationsH1471!

13And thou that didst sayH559 in thy heartH3824, I will ascend into the heavensH8064, I will exaltH7311 my throneH3678 above the starsH3556 of 1GodH410, and I will sitH3427 upon the mount of assembly, in the recesses of the northH6828;

14I will ascend above the heights of the cloudsH5645, I will be like the Most HighH1116:

15none the less art thou broughtH3381 downH3381 to SheolH7585, to the recesses of the pitH953.

16They that seeH7200 thee shall narrowly lookH7200 upon thee; they shall considerH7200 thee, [saying,] Is this the manH376 that made the earthH776 to trembleH7264, that shookH7493 kingdomsH4467;

17[that] madeH7760 the worldH8398 as a wildernessH4057, and overthrew the citiesH5892 thereof; [that] dismissed not his prisonersH615 homewards?

18— All the kingsH4428 of the nationsH1471, all of them, lieH7901 in gloryH3519, every oneH376 in his own houseH1004;

19but thou art castH7993 out of thy graveH6913 like an abominable branchH5342, covered with the slainH2026 — those thrust through with the swordH2719, that goH3381 down to the stonesH68 of the pitH953: like a carcase troddenH947 under foot.

20Thou shalt not be joined with them in burialH6900; for thou hast destroyedH7843 thy landH776, hast slainH2026 thy peopleH5971. Of the seedH2233 of evildoers no mention shall be made for everH5769.
