Exegesis

A simile introduced by kənêṣer {כְּנֵ֣צֶר | kənêṣer} ‘shoot’ followed by niṯʿāb {נִתְעָ֔ב | niṯʿāb} ‘abhorred’ heightens contempt.

In contextIsaiah 14:19

But you have been thrown away from your grave like a despised shoot , clothed with the slain, pierced by the sword, descending to the stones of the pit—like a carcass trampled .
