4 that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, |How the oppressor has ceased. How the attacker has ceased.| 5 The LORD has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers, 6 who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that none restrained. 7 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out song. Isaiah 14:4-7, New Heart English Bible. Public domain.
