12 Look at you! You have fallen from heaven!
    You shine like the bright morning star!
You have won against many nations,
    but now you have come down very low!
13 You said to yourself, “I will go up into heaven.
    I will put my throne above the stars of God.
I will rule as king on the mountain in the far north,
    where the gods of the nations meet together.
14 I will go up above the tops of the clouds.
    I will become like the Most High God.”

    “I will ascend(D) to the heavens;
I will raise my throne(E)
    above the stars of God;
I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly,(F)
    on the utmost heights(G) of Mount Zaphon.[a]
14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;(H)
    I will make myself like the Most High.”(I)
