Isaiah 14:6

4 you will sing this song of contempt against the king of Babylon: How the oppressor has ceased, and how his fury has ended!

5 The LORD has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers.

It struck the peoples in anger with unceasing blows; it subdued the nations in rage with relentless persecution.

7 All the earth is at peace and at rest; they break out in song.

8 Even the cypresses and cedars of Lebanon exult over you: “Since you have been laid low, no woodcutter comes against us.”

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
