OET interlinear ISA 14:11

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

הוּרַ֥ד שְׁא֛וֹל גְּאוֹנֶ֖⁠ךָ

brought_down shəʼōl pride_of,your

The taunters are speaking as if the king of Babylon’s pride could physically descend to the place of the dead. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [You, who were so proud, have been brought down to Sheol]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

גְּאוֹנֶ֖⁠ךָ

pride_of,your

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of pride, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [Your proud heart]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

הוּרַ֥ד

brought_down

The expression has been brought down is a passive verbal form. If it would be unnatural to use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, the context indicates that it is God. Alternate translation: [God has brought down]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

הוּרַ֥ד שְׁא֛וֹל גְּאוֹנֶ֖⁠ךָ הֶמְיַ֣ת נְבָלֶ֑י⁠ךָ

brought_down shəʼōl pride_of,your sound_of your(pl)_lyres_of,your

The taunters are leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [Your pride has been brought down to Sheol along with the sound of your lyres]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וּ⁠מְכַסֶּ֖י⁠ךָ תּוֹלֵעָֽה

and,coverings_of,your worms

The taunters are speaking as if the worms consuming the king’s corpse were a blanket, calling them his covering.
