23_ISA_14_01 for the LORD will have mercy on Jacob , And will yet Choose Israel , And set them in their own land : And the strangers shall be joined with them , And they shall cleave to the house of Jacob .
23_ISA_14_02 And the people shall take them , And bring them to their place : And the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants And handmaids : And they shall take them captives , whose captives they were ; And they shall rule over their oppressors .
23_ISA_14_03 And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow , And from thy Fear , And from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve .
23_ISA_14_04 that thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon , And say , how hath the oppressor ceased ! the golden city ceased !
23_ISA_14_05 the LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked , [ And ] the sceptre of the rulers .
23_ISA_14_06 he who smote the people in wrath with A continual stroke , he that ruled the nations in anger , Is persecuted , [ And ] none hindereth .
23_ISA_14_07 the whole earth Is at rest , [ And ] Is quiet : they break forth into singing .
23_ISA_14_08 yea , the fir trees Rejoice at thee , [ And ] the cedars of Lebanon , [ saying ] , since thou art laid down , no feller Is come up against us .
23_ISA_14_09 hell from beneath Is moved for thee to meet [ thee ] at thy coming : it stirreth up the dead for thee , [ even ] all the chief ones of the earth ; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations .
23_ISA_14_10 all they shall speak And say unto thee , art thou also become weak as we ? art thou become like unto us ?
23_ISA_14_11 thy pomp Is brought down to the grave , [ And ] the noise of thy viols : the worm Is spread under thee , And the worms cover thee .
23_ISA_14_12 how art thou fallen from heaven , O Lucifer , son of the morning ! [ how ] art thou cut down to the ground , which didst weaken the nations !
23_ISA_14_13 for thou hast said in thine heart , I will ascend into heaven , I will Exalt my throne above the stars of God : I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation , in the sides of the north :
23_ISA_14_14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds ; I will be like the most high .
23_ISA_14_15 yet thou shalt be brought down to hell , to the sides of the pit .
23_ISA_14_16 they that see thee shall narrowly Look upon thee , [ And ] consider thee , [ saying , Is ] this the man that made the earth to tremble , that did shake kingdoms ;
23_ISA_14_17 [ that ] made the world as A wilderness , And destroyed the cities thereof ; [ that ] opened not the house of his prisoners ?
23_ISA_14_18 all the kings of the nations , [ even ] all of them , Lie in glory , every one in his own house .
23_ISA_14_19 but thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch , [ And as ] the raiment of those that are slain , thrust through with A sword , that go down to the stones of the pit ; as A carcase trodden under feet .
23_ISA_14_20 thou shalt not be joined with them in burial , because thou hast destroyed thy land , [ And ] slain thy people : the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned .
23_ISA_14_21 prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers ; that they do not rise , nor possess the land , nor fill the face of the world with cities .
23_ISA_14_22 for I will rise up against them , saith the LORD of hosts , And cut off from Babylon the name , And remnant , And son , And nephew , saith the LORD .
23_ISA_14_23 I will also make it A possession for the bittern , And pools of water : And I will sweep it with the besom of destruction , saith the LORD of hosts .
23_ISA_14_24 the LORD of hosts hath sworn , saying , surely as I have thought , So shall it come to pass ; And as I have purposed , [ So ] shall it stand :
23_ISA_14_25 that I will break the Assyrian in my land , And upon my mountains tread him under foot : Then shall his yoke Depart from off them , And his burden Depart from off their shoulders .
23_ISA_14_26 this [ Is ] the purpose that Is purposed upon the whole earth : And this [ Is ] the hand that Is stretched out upon all the nations .
23_ISA_14_27 for the LORD of hosts hath purposed , And who shall disannul [ it ] ? And his hand [ Is ] stretched out , And who shall turn it back ?
23_ISA_14_28 in the year that king Ahaz died was this burden .
23_ISA_14_29 Rejoice not thou , whole Palestina , because the rod of him that smote thee Is broken : for out of the serpent's root shall come forth A cockatrice , And his fruit [ shall be ] A fiery flying serpent .
23_ISA_14_30 And the firstborn of the poor shall feed , And the needy shall Lie down in safety : And I will kill thy root with famine , And he shall slay thy remnant .
23_ISA_14_31 howl , O gate ; cry , O city ; thou , whole Palestina , [ art ] dissolved : for there shall come from the north A smoke , And none [ shall be ] alone in his appointed times .
23_ISA_14_32 what shall [ one ] Then answer the messengers of the nation ? that the LORD hath founded Zion , And the poor of his people shall trust in it .
