Open this scene in the reader →12How you have fallen from heaven, shining one, son of dawn! You have been cut down to the earth, you who subdued the nations.
13But you said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God, and I will sit on the mount of assembly in the far reaches of the north.’
14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.
