12 For the Lord of armies will have a day of reckoning
Against (A)everyone who is arrogant and haughty,
And against everyone who is lifted up,

Against all the (B)oaks of Bashan,
14 Against all the (C)lofty mountains,
Against all the hills that are lifted up,
15 Against every (D)high tower,
Against every fortified wall,
16 Against all the (E)ships of Tarshish

17 And the pride of humanity will be humbled
And the arrogance of people will be brought low;
And the Lord alone will be exalted on that day,
