Isaiah 14:29-31
New King James Version
29 “Do not rejoice, all you of Philistia,
(A)Because the rod that struck you is broken;
For out of the serpent’s roots will come forth a viper,
(B)And its offspring will be a fiery flying serpent.
30 The firstborn of the poor will feed,
And the needy will lie down in safety;
I will kill your roots with famine,
And it will slay your remnant.
31 Wail, O gate! Cry, O city!
All you of Philistia are dissolved;
For smoke will come from the north,
And no one will be alone in his [a]appointed times.”

Isaiah 14:29-31
English Standard Version
29 Rejoice not, (A)O Philistia, all of you,
that (B)the rod that struck you is broken,
for from the serpent's root will come forth an adder,
and its fruit will be a (C)flying fiery serpent.
30 And the firstborn of (D)the poor will graze,
and (E)the needy lie down in safety;
but I will kill your root with famine,
and your remnant it will slay.
31 (F)Wail, O (G)gate; cry out, O city;
melt in fear, (H)O Philistia, all of you!
(I)For smoke comes out of the north,
and there is no straggler in his ranks.
