Isaiah 14:2-4
Lexham English Bible

2 And the nations will take them
    and bring them to their place,
and the house of Israel will take possession of them[a] in the land of Yahweh
    as slaves and female slaves.

And this will happen:

they will take their captors captive
    and rule over their oppressors.

The Downfall of the King of Babylon

3 And it shall happen on the day Yahweh gives you rest from your pain and turmoil and hard labor which you had to perform,[b]

4 that you will take this taunt against the king of Babylon,
    and you will say:
“How the oppressor has ceased!
    his insolence[c] has ceased.
