The whole earth is at rest, [and] is quiet. They break forth into singing. Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee, [and] the cedars of Lebanon, [saying], Since thou are laid low, no hewer has come up against us. Sheol from beneath is moved for thee, to meet thee at thy coming. It stirs up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth. It has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. They shall all answer and say to thee, Have thou also become weak as we? Have thou become like us? Thy pomp is brought down to Sheol, [and] the noise of thy viols. The worm is spread under thee, and worms cover thee. How thou are fallen from heaven, O day-star, son of the morning! How thou are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low! And thou said in thy heart, I will ascend into heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, and I will sit upon the mount of congregation, in the outermost parts of the north. I will ascend above the heights of the clouds. I will make myself like the Most High. Yet thou shall be brought down to Sheol, to the utmost parts of the pit. Those who see thee shall gaze at thee. They shall consider thee, [saying], Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms, who made the world as a wilderness, and overthrew the cities of it, who did not let loose his prisoners to their home? All the kings of the nations, all of them, sleep in glory, each one in his own house. But thou are cast forth away from thy sepulcher like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain, who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit, as a dead body trodden under foot. Thou shall not be joined with them in burial, because thou have destroyed thy land. Thou have slain thy people. The seed of evil-doers shall not be named forever. Prepare ye slaughter for his sons for the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up, and possess the earth, and fill the face of the world with cities. And I will rise up against them, says LORD of hosts, and cut off from Babylon name and remnant, and son and son's son, says LORD.

The burden of the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds in the South sweep through, it comes from the wilderness, from a terrible land. A grievous vision is declared to me. The treacherous man deals treacherously, and the destroyer destroys. Go up, O Elam. Besiege, O Media, all the sighing of it I have made to cease. Therefore my loins are filled with anguish. Pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman in travail. I am pained so that I cannot hear. I am dismayed so that I cannot see. read more.
My heart flutters. Horror has frightened me. The twilight that I desired has been turned into trembling to me. They prepare the table, they set the watch, they eat, they drink. Rise up, ye rulers, anoint the shield. For thus has LORD said to me, Go, set a watchman. Let him declare what he sees. and when he sees a troop, horsemen in pairs, a troop of donkeys, a troop of camels, he shall hearken diligently with much heed. And he cried out as a lion, O LORD, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and am set in my ward whole nights, and, behold, here comes a troop of men, horsemen in pairs. And he answered and said, Fallen, fallen is Babylon. And all the graven images of her gods are broken to the ground. O my threshing, and the grain of my floor! That which I have heard from LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, I have declared to you.
