“who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities, who didn’t release his prisoners to their home?”
Isaiah 14:17 (WEB)
Context Reading
15Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol,to the depths of the pit. 16Those who see you will stare at you. They will ponder you, saying, “Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms, 17who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities, who didn’t release his prisoners to their home?” 18All the kings of the nations sleep in glory, everyone in his own house. 19But you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit; like a dead body trodden under foot.
