Revised Literal Translation
Isaiah 14:16-21
16They that seeH7200 thee shall narrowly lookH7688 upon thee, and considerH995 thee, saying, Is this the manH376 that made the earthH776 to trembleH7264, that did shakeH7493 kingdomsH4467;
17That madeH7760 the worldH8398 as a wildernessH4057, and destroyedH2040 the citiesH5892 thereof; that openedH6605 not the houseH1004 of his prisonersH615?1
18All the kingsH4428 of the nationsH1471, even all of them, lieH7901 in gloryH3519, every oneH376 in his own houseH1004.
19But thou art cast outH7993 of thy graveH6913 like an abominableH8581 branchH5342, and as the raimentH3830 of those that are slainH2026, thrust throughH2944 with a swordH2719, that go downH3381 to the stonesH68 of the pitH953; as a carcaseH6297 trodden under feetH947.
20Thou shalt not be joinedH3161 with them in burialH6900, because thou hast destroyedH7843 thy landH776, and slainH2026 thy peopleH5971: the seedH2233 of evildoersH7489 shall neverH5769 be renownedH7121.
21PrepareH3559 slaughterH4293 for his childrenH1121 for the iniquityH5771 of their fathersH1; that they do notH1077 riseH6965, nor possessH3423 the landH776, nor fillH4390 the faceH6440 of the worldH8398 with citiesH5892H6145.
