NET Bible
"Stop trusting in human beings, whose life’s breath is in their nostrils. For why should they be given special consideration?"
— Isaiah 2:22, NET Bible
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of? ”
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for wherein is he to be accounted of? ”
“Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?”
“Cease ye therefore from the man, whose breath is in his nostrils, for he is reputed high. ”
“Have no more to do with man, whose life is only a breath, for he is of no value.”
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of? ”
They 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.
At that time men will throw their silver and gold idols, which they made for themselves to worship, into the caves where rodents and bats live,
so they themselves can go into the crevices of the rocky cliffs and the openings under the rocky overhangs, trying to escape the dreadful judgment of the LORD and his royal splendor, when he rises up to terrify the earth.
Stop trusting in human beings, whose life’s breath is in their nostrils. For why should they be given special consideration?
