Isaiah 14:29-31

Common English Bible

²⁹ Don’t rejoice, all you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken,
    because from the snake’s root a viper will grow,
    and it will produce a winged creature.
³⁰ The oldest offspring of the poor will graze;
    their needy will lie down secure.
But he will starve your offspring to death,
    and murder all who remain.
³¹ Wail, gate! Cry out, city!
        Melt in terror, all you Philistines!
    Smoke is coming from the north;
        there is no straggler in its ranks.^[a]
