Isaiah 14:1-6

1For Adonai will have compassion on Jacob and will again choose Israel and settle them in their own land. The outsider will join himself with them and will cling to the house of Jacob.

2The peoples will take them and escort them to their place. The house of Israel will possess them in the land of Adonai as servants and handmaids. They will take their captors captive, and rule over their oppressors.

3Now in the day when Adonai will give you rest from your sorrow and your turmoil, and from the hard service you were forced to do,

4you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon and say: “How the taskmaster has ceased! The raging oppressor, exacter of gold, has ceased!

5Adonai has broken the rod of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,

6which struck the people in wrath with continual strokes, which ruled the nations in fury, with relentless persecution.
