Isaiah 14:20-21

14:20 You will not be buried with them,

because you destroyed your land

and killed your people.

The offspring of the wicked

will never be mentioned again.

14:21 Prepare to execute his sons

for the sins their ancestors have committed.

They must not rise up and take possession of the earth,

or fill the surface of the world with cities.”


tn Heb “you will not be united with them in burial” (so NASB).

tn Or “the place of slaughter for.”

tn Heb “for the sin of their fathers.”
