Isaiah 14:18-23

Every king of the earth has been buried with honor, each in his own grave. But you are thrown out of your grave, like an unwanted branch. You are covered by bodies that died in battle, by bodies to be buried in a rocky pit. You are like a dead body other soldiers walk on. You will not be buried with those bodies, because you ruined your own country and killed your own people. The children of evil people will never be mentioned again. Prepare to kill his children, because their father is guilty. They will never again take control of the earth; they will never again fill the world with their cities. The LORD All-Powerful says this: “I will fight against those people; I will destroy Babylon and its people, its children and their descendants,” says the LORD. “I will make Babylon fit only for owls and for swamps. I will sweep Babylon as with a broom of destruction,” says the LORD All-Powerful.
