Exegesis
The participles mə-ṭōʿānê {מְטֹ֣עֲנֵי | mə-ṭōʿānê} ‘pierced’, yōrḏê {יוֹרְדֵ֥י | yōrḏê} ‘descending’, and mūḇas {מוּבָֽס | mūḇas} ‘trampled’ accumulate to depict utter defeat.
In context — Isaiah 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 .
