Isa. 14:1‑27• 1For Jehovah will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and rest them in their own land: and the stranger shall join himself with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
2And the peoples shall take them, and bring them to their place; and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of Jehovah for servants and for handmaids; and they shall take them captive, whose captives they were, and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3And it shall come to pass in the day that Jehovah shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve,
4that thou shalt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased, the golden city ceased!
5Jehovah hath broken the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of the rulers.
6He that smote the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, that ruled the nations in anger, hath a persecution without restraint.
7The whole earth is at rest—is quiet: they break forth into singing.
8Yea, the cypresses rejoice at thee, the cedars of Lebanon, [saying,] Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us.
9Sheol from beneath is moved for thee to meet [thee] at thy coming; it stirreth up the giants for thee, all the chief ones of the earth, raising up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.
10All of them shall answer and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us?
11Thy pomp is brought down to Sheol, the noise of thy lyres: the worm is spread under thee, and vermin covereth thee.
12How art thou fallen from heaven, O day-star, son of the morning how art thou cut down to the ground, that didst lay low the nations!
13And thou saidst in thine heart, I will ascend into the heavens, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; and I will sit upon the mount of assembly, in the recesses of the north;
14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.
15Yet thou shalt be brought down to Sheol, to the recesses of the pit.
16They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, they shall consider thee, [saying,] [Is] this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
17[that] made the world as a wilderness, and overthrew the cities thereof; [that] let not loose his prisoners to their home?
18All kings of the nations, all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.
19But thou art cast out from thy sepulchre like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain—those thrust through with the sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcass trodden under foot.
20Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, thou hast slain thy people: the seed of evil-doers shall not be named forever.

26this the purpose [that is] purposed concerning the whole earth, and this the hand [that is] stretched out over all the nations.
