Isaiah 14:14-17

English Standard Version

¹⁴ I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
    I will make myself like the Most High.’
^15 (A)But you are brought down to Sheol,
    to the far reaches of the pit.
¹⁶ Those who see you will stare at you
    and ponder over you:
‘Is this ^(B)the man who made the earth tremble,
    who shook kingdoms,
¹⁷ who made the world like a desert
    and overthrew its cities,
    ^(C)who did not let his prisoners go home?’
