and the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

the Lord alone will be exalted in that day,

Only the Lord will be exalted

on that day of judgment.

And the haughtiness of the people shall be humbled,

and the pride of everyone shall be brought low,

and Yahweh alone will be exalted on that day.

And upon every high tower,

And upon every fenced wall,

And upon all the ships of Tarshish,

And upon all pleasant pictures.

And the haughtiness of men shall be made low:

And the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day.
