Isaiah 14:3-7

EJ2000(i) 3 And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow and from thy fear and from the hard bondage in which thou wast made to serve, 4 ¶ that thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon and say, How has the oppressor ceased! The city that covets gold has ceased! 5 The LORD has broken the staff of the wicked and the sceptre of the rulers 6 who smote the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the Gentiles in anger and who did not defend the persecuted. 7 The whole earth is at rest and is quiet; they sing praises.
