Isaiah 14:8-10
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
8 Yes, the fir trees and cypresses rejoice at you [O kings of Babylon], even the cedars of Lebanon, saying, Since you have been laid low, no woodcutter comes up against us.
9 Sheol (Hades, the place of the dead) below is stirred up to meet you at your coming [O tyrant Babylonian rulers]; it stirs up the shades of the dead to greet you—even all the chief ones of the earth; it raises from their thrones [in astonishment at your humbled condition] all the kings of the nations.
10 All of them will [tauntingly] say to you, Have you also become weak as we are? Have you become like us?

Isaiah 14:8-10
New International Version
8 Even the junipers(A) and the cedars of Lebanon
gloat over you and say,
“Now that you have been laid low,
no one comes to cut us down.”(B)
9 The realm of the dead(C) below is all astir
to meet you at your coming;
it rouses the spirits of the departed(D) to greet you—
all those who were leaders(E) in the world;
it makes them rise from their thrones—
all those who were kings over the nations.(F)
10 They will all respond,
they will say to you,
“You also have become weak, as we are;
you have become like us.”(G)
