14 Therefore Death expands its jaws,

opening wide its mouth;

into it will descend their nobles and masses

with all their brawlers and revelers.

15 So people will be brought low

and everyone humbled,

the eyes of the arrogant humbled.

16 But the Lord Almighty will be exalted by his justice,

and the holy God will be proved holy by his righteous acts.

14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged its appetite

and opened its mouth beyond measure,

and the nobility of Jerusalem and her multitude will go down,

her revelers and he who exults in her.

15 Man is humbled, and each one is brought low,

and the eyes of the haughty are brought low.

16 But the Lord of hosts is exalted in justice,

and the Holy God shows himself holy in righteousness.

14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself,

And opened her mouth without measure:

And their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp,

And he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.

15 And the mean man shall be brought down,

And the mighty man shall be humbled,

And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:

16 But the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment,

And God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.

14 The grave is licking its lips in anticipation,

opening its mouth wide.

The great and the lowly

and all the drunken mob will be swallowed up.

15 Humanity will be destroyed, and people brought down;

even the arrogant will lower their eyes in humiliation.

16 But the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will be exalted by his justice.

The holiness of God will be displayed by his righteousness.

14 So the place of the dead wants more and more people,

and it opens wide its mouth.

Jerusalem’s important people and common people will go down into it,

with their happy and noisy ones.

15 So the common people and the great people will be brought down;

those who are proud will be humbled.

16 The Lord All-Powerful will receive glory by judging fairly;

the holy God will show himself holy by doing what is right.

14 Therefore Sheol hath enlarged its desire, and opened its mouth without measure; and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth among them, descend into it. 15 And the mean man is bowed down, and the great man is humbled, and the eyes of the lofty are humbled: 16 but Jehovah of hosts is exalted in justice, and God the Holy One is sanctified in righteousness.

14 Therefore doth Sheol enlarge its desire, and open its mouth without measure; and her splendour shall descend into it, and her multitude, and her tumult, and all that is joyful within her. 15 And the mean man shall be bowed down, and the great man brought low, and the eyes of the lofty shall be brought low; 16 and Jehovah of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy •God hallowed in righteousness.

14 That is why the grave’s appetite increases. 

It opens its mouth very wide 

so that honored people and common people will go down into it. 

Those who are noisy and joyous will go down into it. 

15 People will be brought down. Everyone will be humbled. 

And the eyes of arrogant people will be humbled. 

16 The Lord of Armies will be honored when he judges. 

The holy God will show himself to be holy when he does what is right. 

14 Therefore Sheol enlarges its throat

and opens wide its enormous jaws,

and down go Zion’s dignitaries, her masses,

her crowds, and those who carouse in her!

15 Humanity is brought low, man is humbled,

and haughty eyes are humbled.

16 But the Lord of Hosts is exalted by His justice,

and the holy God is distinguished by righteousness.

14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged its appetite

and opened its mouth beyond measure;

the nobility of Jerusalem and her multitude go down,

her throng and all who exult in her.

15 People are bowed down, everyone is brought low,

and the eyes of the haughty are humbled.

16 But the Lord of hosts is exalted by justice,

and the Holy God shows himself holy by righteousness.

14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged its throat,

and it has opened wide its mouth without limit,

and her nobles will go down, and her multitude,

her tumult and those who revel in her.

15 And humankind is bowed down,

and man is brought low,

and the eyes of the haughty are humiliated.

16 But Yahweh of hosts is exalted by justice,

and the holy God shows himself holy by righteousness.

14 So the grave is hungry to receive them.

Its mouth is open wide to swallow them up.

Their nobles and the rest of the people will go down into it.

They will go there together with all those who have wild parties.

15 So man will be brought low.

People will be put to shame.

Those who brag will be brought down.

16 But the Lord who rules over all will be honored

because he judges fairly.

The holy God will show that he is holy

by doing what is right.

14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged its throat and opened its mouth without measure;

And Jerusalem’s splendor, her multitude, her din of revelry and the jubilant within her, descend into it.

15 So the common man will be humbled and the man of importance abased,

The eyes of the proud also will be abased.

16 But the Lord of hosts will be exalted in judgment,

And the holy God will show Himself holy in righteousness.
