Isaiah 14:13-17 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

14. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds. I will be like the Most High.'

16. Those who see you, will lean toward you, and will gaze upon you, saying: 'Could this be the man who disturbed the earth, who shook kingdoms,

17. who made the world into a desert and destroyed its cities, who would not even open a prison for his prisoners?' "
