Isaiah 2 — Context

For the LORD of hosts will have a day of reckoning Against everyone who is proud and lofty And against everyone who is lifted up, That he may be abased.

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

Against all the lofty mountains, Against all the hills that are lifted up,

Against every high tower, Against every fortified wall,

Against all the ships of Tarshish And against all the beautiful craft.

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,

But the idols will completely vanish.
