Isaiah 2:12–16

For 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;

against all the cedars of Lebanon,

lofty and lifted up;

and against all the oaks of Bashan;

against all the lofty mountains,

and against all the uplifted hills;

against every high tower,

and against every fortified wall;

against all the ships of Tarshish,

and against all the beautiful craft.

The Lord Almighty has a day in store

for all the proud and lofty,

for all that is exalted

(and they will be humbled),

for all the cedars of Lebanon, tall and lofty,

and all the oaks of Bashan,

for all the towering mountains

and all the high hills,

for every lofty tower

and every fortified wall,

for every trading ship

and every stately vessel.

For a day belonging to the Lord of Armies is coming

against all that is proud and lofty,

against all that is lifted up—it will be humbled—

against all the cedars of Lebanon,

lofty and lifted up,

against all the oaks of Bashan,

against all the high mountains,

against all the lofty hills,

against every high tower,

against every fortified wall,

against every ship of Tarshish,

and against every splendid sea vessel.

For the Lord of Heaven’s Armies

has a day of reckoning.

He will punish the proud and mighty

and bring down everything that is exalted.

He will cut down the tall cedars of Lebanon

and all the mighty oaks of Bashan.

He will level all the high mountains

and all the lofty hills.

He will break down every high tower

and every fortified wall.

He will destroy all the great trading ships

and every magnificent vessel.

For there is a day for Yahweh of hosts

against all of the proud and the lofty

and against all that is lifted up and humble,

and against all the lofty and lifted up cedars of Lebanon,

and against all the large trees of Bashan,

and against all the high mountains,

and against all the lofty hills,

and against every kind of high tower,

and against every kind of fortified wall,

and against all the ships of Tarshish,

and against all the ships of desire.

For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty,

And upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low:

And upon all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up,

And upon all the oaks of Bashan,

And upon all the high mountains,

And upon all the hills that are lifted up,

And upon every high tower,

And upon every fenced wall,

And upon all the ships of Tarshish,

And upon all pleasant pictures.
