Isaiah 14:12-15
King James Version
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

New International Version
12 How you have fallen(A) from heaven,
morning star,(B) son of the dawn!
You have been cast down to the earth,
you who once laid low the nations!(C)
13 You said in your heart,
“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)
15 But you are brought down(J) to the realm of the dead,(K)
to the depths(L) of the pit.(M)
