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.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the recesses of the pit.
16 They that see thee shall look narrowly on thee, shall gaze earnestly on thee: Is this the man that did disquiet the earth, that made kingdoms tremble?
17 (That) made the world as a wilderness, and broke down the cities thereof; that loosed not his prisoners homeward 18 All ’s of nations, all of them, have lain down in glory, each in his house.
19 But thou art cast out away from thy sepulchre like a rejected branch, clothed with the slain, that are thrust through with the sword, that go down to the stones of the pit, like a trampled carcase.
20 Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou ’destroyed thy land, slain thy people: the seed of evil doers shall not be named, for ever.
21 Prepare for his sons (a place of) slaughter, for the iniquity of their fathers; that they rise not up, and possess the earth, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
22 And I will rise up against them, saith the LORD of Hosts, and cut off from Babylon name, and remnant, and issue, and offspring: saith the LORD.
23 And I will make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water; and I will sweep it away with the besom of destruction, ’the LORD of Hosts.
