Isaiah 2:9-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

9 So all shall be abased,
    each one brought low.[a]
    Do not pardon them!
10 Get behind the rocks,
    hide in the dust,
From the terror of the Lord
    and the splendor of his majesty!
11 The eyes of human pride shall be lowered,
    the arrogance of mortals shall be abased,
    and the Lord alone will be exalted, on that day.[b]

Footnotes

  1. 2:9 Bowing down to idols will not bring deliverance to Israel, but rather total abasement. Do not pardon them: this line is so abrupt that it is almost certainly an intrusion in the text.
  2. 2:11 That day: i.e., the day of the Lord; cf. note on Am 5:18.
