Isaiah 2:8-20

8Their land has also been 1filled with idols; They worship the 2work of their hands, That which their fingers have made.9So 3the common man has been humbled And the man of importance has been abased, But 4do not forgive them.105Enter the rock and hide in the dust 6From the terror of the Lord and from the splendor of His majesty.11The 78proud look of man will be abased And the 9loftiness of man will be humbled, And the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.
