14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;I will be like the Most High!”
15 No! Down to Sheol you will be broughtto the depths of the pit!
16 When they see you they will stare,pondering over you:“Is this the man who made the earth tremble,who shook kingdoms?
17 Who made the world a wilderness,razed its cities,and gave captives no release?”
18 All the kings of the nations lie in glory,each in his own tomb;
19 But you are cast forth without burial,like loathsome carrion,Covered with the slain, with those struck by the sword,a trampled corpse,Going down to the very stones of the pit.
20 You will never be together with them in the grave,For you have ruined your land,you have slain your people!Let him never be named,that offshoot of evil!
