Isaiah 14:4-6

Jubilee Bible 2000

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.
