Isaias

2 And peoples shall take them, and bring them to their place and the house of Israel shall take them as their possession upon the ’s ground for servants and for handmaids; and they shall be captors to their captors 3 and they shall rule over their oppressors.

3 And it shall be in that day that the LORD giveth thee rest from thy pain and thy disquiet, and from the hard bondage which was laid upon thee,

4 That thou shalt take up this ’parable over the king Of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased, the insolence ceased!

5 The LORD hath broken the staff of the the rod of rulers,

6 Which smote peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, ruled over nations in anger with a pursuit that none restrained.

7 The whole earth is at rest, is quiet; they break forth into Singing.

8 Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee, the cedars of Lebanon, (saying,) Since thou hast lain down, the feller cometh not up against us.

9 Hell (from) beneath is disquieted for thee, to meet thee at thy coming; it stirreth up the Shades for thee, all the chief ones of the earth; ’ raiseth from their thrones all the kings of the nations.

10 All they shall answer and say ’unto thee, Thou also art made weak as we ἦ thou art made like unto us!

11 Thy pride is brought down to hell, the noise of thy viols; the maggot is spread under thee, and the worm is thy covering.

12 How art thou fallen from heaven, Lucifer, son of the dawn; how art thou hewn down to the ground, which didst lay low the nations!

13 And thou, thou sajdst in thy heart, I will ascend 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:

14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the most High.
