Isaiah 2:12-19

12Indeed, the Lord who commands armies has planned a day of judgment, for all the high and mighty, for all who are proud – they will be humiliated;

13for all the cedars of Lebanon, that are so high and mighty, for all the oaks of Bashan;

14for all the tall mountains, for all the high hills,

15for every high tower, for every fortified wall,

16for all the large ships, for all the impressive ships.

17Proud men will be humiliated, arrogant men will be brought low; the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

18The worthless idols will be completely eliminated.

19They will go into caves in the rocky cliffs and into holes in the ground, trying to escape the dreadful judgment of the Lord and his royal splendor, when he rises up to terrify the earth.
