Isaiah 14:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Also the fir trees rejoiced of thee, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying, Since thou art laid down, no hewer came up against us.
9 Hell beneath is moved for thee to [a]meet thee at thy coming, raising up the dead for thee, even all the princes of the earth, and hath raised from their thrones all the Kings of the nations.
10 All they shall cry and say unto thee, Art thou become weak also as we? art thou become like unto us?

- Isaiah 14:9 As though they feared, lest thou shouldest trouble the dead, as thou didst the living: and here he derideth the proud tyranny of the wicked, which know not that all creatures wish their destruction, that they may rejoice.
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)
