¹³ But you said in your heart,
‘I will ^(A)ascend to heaven;
I will ^(B)raise my throne above the stars of God,
And I will sit on the mount of assembly
In the recesses of the north.
¹⁴ I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
^(C)I will make myself like the Most High.’

³ The ^(A)arrogance of your heart has deceived you,
You who dwell in the clefts of ^[a]the ^(B)cliff,
In the height of your habitation,
Who says in his heart,
‘^(C)Who will bring me down to earth?’
⁴ Though you ^(D)build loftily like the eagle,
Though you set your nest among the ^(E)stars,
From there I will bring you down,” declares Yahweh.
