New International Version Anglicized

Isaiah 2:6-14 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

6. You, Lord, have abandoned your people,the descendants of Jacob.They are full of superstitions from the East;they practise divination like the Philistinesand embrace pagan customs.

7. Their land is full of silver and gold;there is no end to their treasures.Their land is full of horses;there is no end to the chariots.

8. Their land is full of idols;they bow down to the work of their hands,to what their fingers have made.

9. So people will be brought lowand everyone humbled –do not forgive them.

10. Go into the rocks, hide in the groundfrom the fearful presence of the Lordand the splendour of his majesty!

11. The eyes of the arrogant will be humbledand human pride brought low;the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

12. The Lord Almighty has a day in storefor all the proud and lofty,for all that is exalted(and they will be humbled),

13. for all the cedars of Lebanon, tall and lofty,and all the oaks of Bashan,

14. for all the towering mountainsand all the high hills,
