Isaiah 14:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 14:2

Mercy on Jacob

1 For the Lord ^awill have mercy on Jacob, and ^bwill still choose Israel, and settle them in their own land. ^cThe strangers will be joined with them, and they will cling to the house of Jacob.

2 Then people will take them ^aand bring them to their place, and the house of Israel will possess them for servants and maids in the land of the Lord; they will take them captive whose captives they were, ^band rule over their oppressors.

Fall of the King of Babylon

3 It shall come to pass in the day the Lord gives you rest from your sorrow, and from your fear and the hard bondage in which you were made to serve,

4 that you ^awill take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say:
“How the oppressor has ceased,
The ^bgolden city ceased!

5 The Lord has broken ^athe staff of the wicked,
The scepter of the rulers;

6 He who struck the people in wrath with a continual stroke,
He who ruled the nations in anger,
Is persecuted and no one hinders.
