Isaiah 14:7 CPDV

⁵  The Lord has crushed the staff of the impious, the scepter of despots,

⁶  which struck the people in wrath with an incurable wound, which subjugated the nations in fury, which persecuted with cruelty.

⁷  All the earth has become quiet and still; it has been gladdened and has rejoiced.

⁸  The evergreens, too, have rejoiced over you, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying: 'Since you have slept, no one has ascended who would cut us down.'

⁹  Hell below was stirred up to meet you at your advent; it has awakened the giants for you. All the leaders of the earth have risen from their thrones, all the leaders among the nations.'
