Isaiah 2:12-22

The Lord of Angel Armies has a day of humiliation in store for all the high and mighty, for all who are proud and self-exalting. They will be brought low. His judgment is coming against all the lofty cedars of Lebanon and all the oaks of Bashan, against all the high mountains and all the lofty hills, against every high tower and every fortress wall, against all the trading ships of Tarshish and all the impressive sailing vessels. People’s arrogance will be conquered and brought low, and those proud of heart will be humiliated. Only one will be exalted in that day: YAHWEH! Every worthless idol will utterly pass away. People will hide in caves and holes in the ground from the dreadful presence of YAHWEH and from his majestic glory when he rises to mightily shake the earth. In that day, people will throw away the worthless idols their hands have made from gold and silver. They will fling their treasures to the rodents and bats as they crawl into the clefts of the rock to hide from the dreadful presence of YAHWEH and from the majesty of his glory when he rises to shake the earth mightily! So once and for all, stop trusting in man, who is but one breath from death—frail and puny man!
