Isa 14
1 The King of Babylon
Quickly it comes, and shall not pass time, and their days in no way shall drag. And
the LORD shall show mercy on Jacob, and will choose yet Israel, and they shall rest upon their land; and the foreigner shall be added to them, and they shall be added to the house of Jacob.
2And [
2shall take
3them
1nations], and bring
them into their place; and they shall inherit
them, and they shall be multiplied upon the land of God for manservants and maidservants; and [
4shall be
5captives
1the
2ones capturing
3them]; and they shall dominate the ones dominating them.
3And it will be in that day [
2will rest
3you
1the LORD] from the grief, and your rage, and [
3slavery
1your
2hard] of which you slaved for them.
4And you shall take up this wailing against the king of Babylon, and you shall say in that day, O how [
3has been rested
1the
2one exacting], and [
3has been rested
1the
2taskmaster]!
5The LORD broke the yoke of the sinners, the yoke of the rulers.
6Having struck a nation in rage [
2calamity
1with an incurable]; hitting a nation with a calamity of rage, which he spared not, he rested persuading.
7All the earth yells with gladness.
8And the trees of Lebanon shall be gladdened against you, and the cedar of Lebanon,
saying, From of which
time you were laid
low, there ascended not one felling us.
9 Hades from below was embittered meeting with you; [
7were risen up together
8against you
1all
2the
3giants
4ruling
5the
6earth], the ones rising from their thrones, all
the kings of
the nations.
10All shall answer and shall say to you, You also captured as even we; [
3among
4us
1and
2are you reckoned]?
11[
2went down
3into
4Hades
1Your glory], [
2great
3gladness
1your]; underneath you they shall make a bed of putrefaction, and [
2shall be your covering
1the worm].
12 The Fallen Morning Star
O how [
3fell
4from out of
5the
6heaven
1the
2morning star] -- the one [
2by morning
1rising]; [
7was broken
8unto
9the
10earth
1the one
2sending
3to
4all
5the
6nations].
13But you said in your heart, Unto the heaven I shall ascend; [
3upon
4the
5stars
6of the
7heaven
1I will put
2my throne]; I shall sit on [
2mountain
1a high], upon the [
2mountains
1high] towards
the north;
14I will ascend upon the clouds; I will be likened to the highest.
15But now [
2into
3Hades
1you shall go down], and into the foundations of the earth.
16The ones beholding you shall wonder over you, and shall say,
Is this the man provoking the earth, the one shaking kings;
17the one making the inhabitable world desolate, and [
2its cities
1demolished]; the ones in enslavement he did not loose.
18All the kings of the nations sleep in honor,
every man in his house.
19But you shall be tossed in the mountains as dead, being abhorred with many having died being stabbed by a sword, going down into Hades.
20In which manner a garment [
2by
3blood
1being befouled] shall not be clean, so not even shall you be clean; because [
2my land
1you destroyed], and [
2my people
1killed]; in no way should you abide into the eon of time -- [
2seed
1O evil].
21Prepare your children to be slain for the sins of their father! that they should not rise up and inherit the earth, and should fill up the earth with wars.
22And I will rise up against them, says
the LORD of Hosts, and I will destroy their name, and vestige, and seed -- thus says
the LORD.
23And I will make the Babylonian region desolate so as for [
2to dwell
1hedgehogs]. And it will be for nothing, and I will make it a clay pit for destruction.
24 The Plan for the Inhabitable World
Thus says
the LORD of Hosts, In which manner I have said, so it will be; and in which manner I have deliberated, so it shall remain;
25 even to destroy the Assyrians upon [
2land
1my], and upon my mountains; and they will be for trampling. And [
2shall be removed
3from
4them
1their yoke], and their dignity [
2from
3their shoulders
1shall be removed].
26This
is the plan which
the LORD planned for all the inhabitable world. And this
is the [
2hand
1high] upon all the nations.
27For what the [
2God
1holy] planned, who shall efface? And [
5hand
3his
4high
1who
2shall turn]?
28 The Destruction of the Philistines
The year in which [
3died
2Ahaz
1king], came this saying.
29Be not glad all Philistines, for he broke the yoke of the one hitting you. For from out of
the seed of
the serpent shall come forth a progeny of asps, and their progeny shall come forth as [
2serpents
1flying].
30And [
2shall be grazed
1the poor] by him; and poor men with peace shall rest; and he shall do away [
2with
3hunger
1your seed]; and your vestige he will do away with.
31Shriek, O gates of
the cities! Cry out, O cities! [
4are being disturbed
2the
3Philistines
1All]. For from
the north smoke comes, and there is no being.
32And what shall [
3answer
1the kings
2of
the nations]? For
the LORD laid a foundation in Zion, and through him [
3shall be delivered
2peoples
1many].
