You said in your heart, "I'll ascend to heaven, above the stars of God. I'll erect my throne; I'll sit on the Mount of Assembly in the far reaches of the north;

I'll ascend above the tops of the clouds; I'll make myself like the Most High.'

My heart cries out over Moab; her fugitives flee as far as Zoar, as far as Eglath-shelishiyah. For at the ascent to Luhith they go up weeping; on the road to Horonaim they raise a cry of destruction.

Their slain will be thrown out; and as for their dead bodies their stench will ascend; the mountains will be soaked with their blood.
