5. Now, descendants of Jacob, let us walk in the light which the Lord gives us!
6. O God, you have forsaken your people, the descendants of Jacob! The land is full of magic practices from the east and from Philistia. The people follow foreign customs.
7. Their land is full of silver and gold, and there is no end to their treasures. Their land is full of horses, and there is no end to their chariots.
8. Their land is full of idols, and they worship objects that they have made with their own hands.
9. Everyone will be humiliated and disgraced. Do not forgive them, Lord!
10. They will hide in caves in the rocky hills or dig holes in the ground to try to escape from the Lord's anger and to hide from his power and glory!
11. A day is coming when human pride will be ended and human arrogance destroyed. Then the Lord alone will be exalted.
12. On that day the Lord Almighty will humble everyone who is powerful, everyone who is proud and conceited.
13. He will destroy the tall cedars of Lebanon and all the oaks in the land of Bashan.
