Isaiah 2:6-22

6ForH3588 You have abandonedH5203 Your peopleH5971, the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, becauseH3588 they are filledH4390 with influences from the eastH6924; they are soothsayersH6049 like the PhilistinesH6430; they strikeH5606 hands with the childrenH3206 of foreignersH5237.

7Their landH776 is full ofH4390 silverH3701 and goldH2091,with noH369 limitH7097 to their treasuresH214;their landH776 is full ofH4390 horsesH5483,with noH369 limitH7097 to their chariotsH4818.8Their landH776 is full ofH4390 idolsH457;they bow downH7812 to the workH4639 of their handsH3027,to whatH834 their fingersH676 have madeH6213.9So mankindH120 is brought lowH7817,and manH376 is humbledH8213—do notH408 forgiveH5375 them!
10GoH935 into the rocksH6697and hideH2934 in the dustH6083fromH6440 the terrorH6343 of the LORDH3068and the splendorH1926 of His majestyH1347.11The proudH1365 lookH5869 of manH120 will be humbledH8213,and the loftinessH7312 of menH582 brought lowH7817;the LORDH3068 aloneH905 will be exaltedH7682 in thatH1931 dayH3117.
12ForH3588 the DayH3117 of the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635will come againstH5921 allH3605 the proudH1343 and loftyH7311,againstH5921 allH3605 that is exaltedH5375—it will be humbledH8213—13againstH5921 allH3605 the cedarsH730 of LebanonH3844, loftyH7311 and lifted upH5375,againstH5921 allH3605 the oaksH437 of BashanH1316,14againstH5921 allH3605 the tallH7311 mountainsH2022,againstH5921 allH3605 the highH5375 hillsH1389,15againstH5921 everyH3605 highH1364 towerH4026,againstH5921 everyH3605 fortifiedH1219 wallH2346,16againstH5921 everyH3605 shipH591 of TarshishH8659,1and againstH5921 everyH3605 statelyH2532 vesselH7914.
17So the prideH1365 of manH120 will be brought lowH7817,and the loftinessH7312 of menH582 will be humbledH8213;the LORDH3068 aloneH905 will be exaltedH7682 in thatH1931 dayH3117,18and the idolsH457 will vanishH2498 completelyH3632.19Men will fleeH935 to cavesH4631 in the rocksH6697and holesH4247 in the groundH6083,away fromH6440 the terrorH6343 of the LORDH3068and from the splendorH1926 of His majestyH1347,when He risesH6965 to shakeH6206 the earthH776.
20In thatH1931 dayH3117 menH120 will cast awayH7993to the molesH2661H6512 and batsH5847their idolsH457 of silverH3701 andH853H457 goldH2091—the idols they madeH6213 to worshipH7812.21They will fleeH935 to cavernsH5366 in the rocksH6697and crevicesH5585 in the cliffsH5553,away fromH6440 the terrorH6343 of the LORDH3068and from the splendorH1926 of His majestyH1347,when He risesH6965 to shakeH6206 the earthH776.
22Put no more trustH2308 inH4480 manH120,whoH834 has only the breathH5397 in his nostrilsH639H3588.Of whatH4100 accountH2803 is heH1931?
