Isaiah 14:21-23
Christian Standard Bible
21 Prepare a place of slaughter for his sons,
because of the iniquity(A) of their ancestors.
They will never rise up to possess a land
or fill the surface of the earth with cities.
22 “I will rise up against them”—this is the declaration of the Lord of Armies—“and I will cut off from Babylon her reputation, remnant, offspring, and posterity”—this is the Lord’s declaration. 23 “I will make her a swampland and a region for herons,[a] and I will sweep her away with the broom of destruction.”
This is the declaration of the Lord of Armies.
