Isaiah 14:20-22
International Standard Version
20 you will not be united[a] with them[b] in burial,
for you have destroyed your land,
you have slain your people.
People will never mention
the descendants of those who practice evil again![c]
21 Prepare a massacre for his sons
because of the guilt of their forefathers!
They are not to rise and inherit the earth,
and cover[d] the surface of the world with cities.”
Babylon’s Desolation
22 “I will rise up against them,” declares the Lord of the Heavenly Armies, “and I will eliminate from Babylon her name and survivors, her offspring and descendants,”[e] declares the Lord.
