Isaiah 2:5–21

5 Come, ahouse of Jacob, and let us walk in the blight of the Lord.

6 For You have aabandoned Your people, the house of Jacob,

Because they are filled with influences from the east,

And they are soothsayers blike the Philistines,

And they cstrike bargains with the children of foreigners.

7 Their land has also been filled with silver and gold

And there is no end to their treasures;

Their land has also been filled with ahorses

And there is no end to their chariots.

8 Their land has also been afilled with idols;

They worship the bwork of their hands,

That which their fingers have made.

9 So athe common man has been humbled

And the man of importance has been abased,

But bdo not forgive them.

10 aEnter the rock and hide in the dust

bFrom the terror of the Lord and from the splendor of His majesty.

11 The 1aproud look of man will be abased

And the bloftiness of man will be humbled,

And the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

A Day of Reckoning Coming

12 For the Lord of hosts will have a day of reckoning

Against aeveryone who is proud and lofty

And against everyone who is lifted up,

That he may be abased.

13 And it will be against all the cedars of Lebanon that are lofty and lifted up,

Against all the aoaks of Bashan,

14 Against all the alofty mountains,

Against all the hills that are lifted up,

15 Against every ahigh tower,

Against every fortified wall,

16 Against all the aships of Tarshish

And against all the beautiful craft.

17 The pride of man will be humbled

And the loftiness of men will be abased;

And the Lord alone will be exalted in that day,

18 But the aidols will completely vanish.

19 Men will ago into caves of the rocks

And into holes of the 1ground

Before the terror of the Lord

And the splendor of His majesty,

When He arises bto make the earth tremble.

20 In that day men will acast away to the moles and the bbats

Their idols of silver and their idols of gold,

Which they made for themselves to worship,

21 In order to ago into the caverns of the rocks and the clefts of the cliffs

Before the terror of the Lord and the splendor of His majesty,

When He arises to make the earth tremble.
