- O Lucifer, son of the morning!
- How you are cut down to the ground,
- You who weakened the nations!"[5]
- "Fallen from heaven": see Luke 10:15, 18 for the words of Jesus Christ regarding the fall of Satan.[6]
- "Lucifer": or "Day-star" (Hebrew: הילל hēylēl, from הלל hâlal, "to shine"). The Septuagint renders it, Ἑωσφόρος Heōsphoros, and Jerome in the Vulgate, "Lucifer, the morning star." The Chaldee, "How art thou fallen from high, who wert splendid among the sons of men." The New Oxford Annotated Bible suggests the correlation with "a Canaanite myth of the gods Helel and Sharar (Morning Star and Dawn), who fall from heaven as a result of rebellion."[7]
