Isaiah 14:7-9

Easy-to-Read Version

⁷ But now, the whole country rests and is quiet.
    Now the people begin to celebrate.
⁸ You were an evil king,
    and now you are finished.
Even the pine trees are happy.
    The cedar trees of Lebanon rejoice.
They say, “The king chopped us down,
    but now the king has fallen,
    and he will never stand again.”
⁹ The place of death is excited
    that you are coming.
Sheol is waking the spirits
    of all the leaders of the earth for you.
Sheol is making the kings stand up
    from their thrones to meet you.
