On the day that Yahweh gives you rest from your suffering and anguish, and from the hard labor which you were required to perform,

6 [which] struck Peoples in wrath a blow not ceasing [which] ruled in anger nations persecution [which] not anyone restrained.

Sheol below is eager to meet you when you go there. It arouses the dead for you, all the kings of the earth, making them rise up from their thrones, all the kings of the nations. (Sheol )
10 All of them they will answer and they may say to you also you you have been made weak like us to us you have become like.
They all will speak and say to you, 'You have become as weak as us. You have become like us.

How you are fallen from heaven, daystar, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who conquered the nations!
13 And you you said in heart your the heavens I will ascend from above [the] stars of El I will raise throne my so I may sit on [the] mountain of appointed meeting in [the] remotest parts of Zaphon.
You had said in your heart, 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, and I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north.
14 I will ascend above [the] high places of [the] cloud[s] I will make myself like [the] Most High.

18 All [the] kings of [the] nations all of them they have lain down in splendor each one in own house his.
All the kings of the nations, all of them lie down in honor, each one in his own tomb.
19 And you you have been thrown out from tomb your like a branch abhorred [the] clothing of [those who] were slain [who were] pierced of [the] sword [who] go down to [the] stones of [the] pit like a corpse trodden down.
But you are cast out of your grave like a branch thrown away. The dead cover you like a garment, those pierced by the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit.
20 Not you will be united with them in burial for land your you have ruined people your you have slain not it will be named for ever [the] offspring of evil-doers.

Yahweh of hosts has sworn, “Surely, as I have intended, so it will come about; and as I have purposed, so it will be:
25 To break Assyria in land my and on mountains my I will tread down it and it will be removed from on them yoke its and burden its from on shoulder its it will be removed.
I will break the Assyrian in my land, and on my mountains trample him underfoot. Then his yoke will be lifted from off them and his burden from off their shoulder.” Then his yoke will be lifted from off them and his burden from off their shoulder.”
26 This [is] the plan which is planned on all the earth and this [is] the hand which is stretched out over all the nations.
This is the plan that is intended for the whole earth, and this is the hand that is raised over all the nations.
27 For Yahweh of hosts he has planned and who? will he frustrate [it] and [is] hand his the [one] stretched out and who? will he turn back it.
For Yahweh of hosts has planned this; who will stop him? His hand is raised, and who will turn it back?

29 May not you rejoice O Philistia all of you that it has been broken [the] rod of [the] [one who] struck you for from [the] root of a snake it will go forth a viper and fruit its [will be] a serpent flying.
Do not rejoice, all you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken. For out of the serpent's root will grow out an adder, and his offspring will be a fiery flying serpent.
30 And they will graze [the] firstborn of poor [people] and needy [people] to security they will lie down and I will put to death by famine root your and remnant your it will kill.
The firstborn of the poor will graze their sheep in my pastures, and the needy will lie down in safety. I will kill your root with famine that will put to death all your survivors.
31 Wail O gate cry out O city melt away O Philistia all of you for from [the] north smoke [is] coming and there not [is] an isolated [one] among ranks its.
Howl, gate; cry, city; all of you will melt away, Philistia. For out of the north comes a cloud of smoke, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
32 And what? will anyone answer [the] messengers of a nation that Yahweh he has founded Zion and in it they will take refuge [the] afflicted [people] of people his.
How will they respond to the messengers of that nation? “Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will find refuge.”
