Isaiah 14:9-11

New Century Version

⁹ The place of the dead is excited
    to meet you when you come.
It wakes the spirits of the dead,
    the leaders of the world.
It makes kings of all nations
    stand up from their thrones to greet you.
¹⁰ All these leaders will make fun of you
    and will say,
“Now you are weak, as we are.
    Now you are just like us.”
¹¹ Your pride has been sent down to the place of the dead.
    The music from your harps goes with it.
Flies are spread out like your bed beneath you,
    and worms cover your body like a blanket.
