Isaiah 14:8-10

New International Reader's Version

⁹ “King of Babylon, many people in the place of the dead are really excited.
    They’re excited about meeting you when you go down there.
The spirits of the dead get up to welcome you.
    At one time all of them were leaders in the world.
They were kings over the nations.
    They get up from their thrones.
¹⁰ All of them call out to you.
    They say,
‘You have become weak, just as we are.
    You have become like us.’
