Isaiah 14:4 in Context — Isaiah 14

2 E os povos os receberão, e os levarão a seus lugares, e a casa de Israel terá posse deles como servos e servas, na terra do SENHOR; e capturarão aos que tinham lhes capturado, e dominarão sobre seus opressores.

3 E será que, no dia em que o SENHOR te der descanso de teu trabalho e de teu tormento, e da dura escravidão que te escravizaram,

4 Então levantarás estas palavras de escárnio contra o rei da Babilônia, e dirás: [Vede] como foi o fim do opressor, como a cidade dourada se acabou!

5 O SENHOR quebrou o bastão dos perversos, o cetro dos que dominavam,

6 Que feria aos povos com furor com golpes sem fim, que com ira dominava as nações, perseguindo sem compaixão.
