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.

The verse 14 is found in chapter 5 of Isaiah. The six woes denounce different expressions of corruption: accumulation of property, excessive drinking, indifference to God’s work, moral relativism, pride, and judicial corruption. The chapter ends by presenting a foreign nation as an instrument of judgment. Unjust prosperity is not interpreted as a permanent blessing, but as a condition that can lead to ruin.

Daher hat die Hölle den Schlund weit aufgesperrt und den Rachen aufgetan ohne Maß, daß hinunterfahren beide, ihre Herrlichen und der Pöbel, ihre Reichen und Fröhlichen;
Por eso ensanchó su interior el sepulcro, y sin medida extendió su boca; y allá descenderá la gloria de ellos, y su multitud, y su fausto, y el que en él se holgaba.
Por eso el Seol ha ensanchado su garganta y ha abierto su boca sin medida; a él bajarán el esplendor de la ciudad, su multitud, su bullicio y el que se divierte en ella.
C'est pourquoi le séjour des morts ouvre sa bouche, Elargit sa gueule outre mesure; Alors descendent la magnificence et la richesse de Sion, Et sa foule bruyante et joyeuse.
Perciò, il sepolcro si è allargato, ed ha aperta la sua gola smisuratamente; e la nobiltà di Gerusalemme, ed il suo popolazzo, e la sua turba, e coloro che in essa festeggiano, vi scenderanno.
Portanto o inferno grandemente se alargou, e se abriu a sua boca desmesuradamente; e para lá descerão o seu esplendor, e a sua multidão, e a sua pompa, e os que entre eles se alegram.
因此,陰間胃口 大開, 張開無限量的口; 令 耶路撒冷 的貴族與平民、狂歡的與作樂的人 都掉落其中。
