New Testament

Yeshayah 14:15-21 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

15. Yet thou shalt be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the bor (pit).

16. They that see thee shall gaze at thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the ish (man) that made ha'aretz to tremble, that did shake mamlechot (kingdoms);

17. That made the tevel (world) like a midbar (desert), and overthrew the towns thereof; that would not release his prisoners to go home?

18. Kol melachim (all kings) of the Goyim, even all of them, lie in kavod, every one in his own bais (house, i.e., tomb).

19. But thou art cast out of thy kever like a rejected netzer (branch, see Mt 2:23); and your raiment is those that are slain, thrust through with a cherev, that go down to the stones of the bor (pit); as a peger (corpse) trodden under feet.

20. Thou shalt not be joined with them in kevurah (burial), because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people; the zera of ra'im (evildoers) shall never be renowned.

21. Prepare the matbe'ach (slaughterhouse) for his banim for the avon (iniquity) of their avot; that they do not rise, nor inherit eretz, nor cover the surface of the tevel (earth) with towns.
