Isaiah 14:4-6

Tree of Life Version

“How the taskmaster has ceased!
The raging oppressor, exacter of gold, has ceased!
⁵ Adonai has broken the rod of the wicked,
the scepter of the rulers,
⁶ which struck the people in wrath
    with continual strokes,
which ruled the nations in fury,
    with relentless persecution.
