Isaiah 2:11–22

^11eThe haughty looks of man shall be brought low,

and the lofty pride of men shall be humbled,

and the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

^12fFor the Lord of hosts has a day

against all that is proud and lofty,

against all that is lifted up—and it shall be brought low;

¹³against all the ^gcedars of Lebanon,

lofty and lifted up;

and against all the ^hoaks of Bashan;

¹⁴against all ⁱthe lofty mountains,

and against all the uplifted hills;

¹⁵against every high tower,

and against every fortified wall;

¹⁶against all ^jthe ships of Tarshish,

and against all the beautiful craft.

^17kAnd the haughtiness of man shall be humbled,

and the lofty pride of men shall be brought low,

and the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

^18lAnd the idols shall utterly pass away.

^19mAnd people shall enter the caves of the rocks

and the holes of the ground,²

from before the terror of the Lord,

and from the splendor of his majesty,

ⁿwhen he rises to terrify the earth.

²⁰In that day ^omankind will cast away

their idols of silver and their idols of gold,

which they made for themselves to worship,

to the moles and to the ^pbats,

^21mto enter the caverns of the rocks

and the clefts of the cliffs,

from before the terror of the Lord,

and from the splendor of his majesty,

ⁿwhen he rises to terrify the earth.

^22qStop regarding man

^rin whose nostrils is breath,

for of what account is he?
