Isaiah 14:14 Context
12How art thou fallen from heauen, O Lucifer, sonne of the morning? how art thou cut downe to the ground, which didst weaken the nations? 13For thou hast said in thine heart; I wil ascend into heauen, I wil exalt my throne aboue the starres of God: I wil sit also vpon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the North. 14I wil ascend aboue the heights of the cloudes, I wil bee like the most High. 15Yet thou shalt be brought downe to hel, to the sides of the pit. 16They that see thee shal narrowly looke vpon thee, and consider thee, saying; Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdomes?
