Isaiah 14:1-12
1For the LORDH3068 will have mercyH7355 on JacobH3290, and will yet chooseH977 IsraelH3478, and setH3240 them in their own landH127: and the strangersH1616 shall be joinedH3867 with them, and they shall uniteH5596 with the houseH1004 of JacobH3290. 2And the peopleH5971 shall takeH3947 them, and bringH935 them to their placeH4725: and the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 shall possessH5157 them in the landH127 of the LORDH3068 for servantsH5650 and handmaidsH8198: and they shall take them captivesH7617, whose captivesH7617 they were; and they shall ruleH7287 over their oppressorsH5065.1 3And it shall come to pass in the dayH3117 that the LORDH3068 shall give thee restH5117 from thy sorrowH6090, and from thy fearH7267, and from the hardH7186 bondageH5656 in which thou wast made to serveH5647,
4That thou shalt take upH5375 this proverbH4912 against the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and sayH559, How hath the oppressorH5065 ceasedH7673! the golden cityH4062 ceasedH7673!23 5The LORDH3068 hath brokenH7665 the staffH4294 of the wickedH7563, and the sceptreH7626 of the rulersH4910. 6He who smoteH5221 the peopleH5971 in wrathH5678 with a continualH1115H5627 strokeH4347, he that ruledH7287 the nationsH1471 in angerH639, is persecutedH4783, and noneH1097 hinderethH2820.4 7The whole earthH776 is at restH5117, and is quietH8252: they break forthH6476 into singingH7440. 8Yea, the fir treesH1265 rejoiceH8055 at thee, and the cedarsH730 of LebanonH3844, saying, Since thou art laid downH7901, no woodsmanH3772 is come upH5927 against us. 9HellH7585 from beneath is movedH7264 for thee to meetH7125 thee at thy comingH935: it stirreth upH5782 the deadH7496 for thee, even all the chief onesH6260 of the earthH776; it hath raised upH6965 from their thronesH3678 all the kingsH4428 of the nationsH1471.56 10All they shall speakH6030 and sayH559 to thee, Art thou also become weakH2470 as we? art thou become likeH4911 us? 11Thy pompH1347 is brought downH3381 to the graveH7585, and the noiseH1998 of thy violsH5035: the wormH7415 is spreadH3331 under thee, and the wormsH8438 coverH4374 thee. 12How art thou fallenH5307 from heavenH8064, O LuciferH1966, sonH1121 of the morningH7837H3213! how art thou cut downH1438 to the groundH776, which didst weakenH2522 the nationsH1471!7
