Isaiah 2:11-12

11 Proud men will be brought low,
arrogant men will be humiliated; ^{▼▼tn Heb “and the eyes of the pride of men will be brought low, and the arrogance of men will be brought down.” The repetition of the verbs שָׁפַל (shafal) and שָׁחָח (shakhakh) from v. 9 draws attention to the appropriate nature of the judgment. Those proud men who “bow low” before idols will be forced to “bow low” before God when he judges their sin.}
the Lord alone will be exalted ^{▼▼tn Or “elevated”; CEV “honored.”}
in that day.
12 Indeed, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies has planned a day of judgment ^{▼▼tn Heb “indeed [or “for”] the Lord of Heaven’s Armies [traditionally, “the Lord of hosts”] has a day.”}
for ^{▼▼tn Or “against” (NAB, NASB, NRSV).} all the high and mighty;
for all who are proud—they will be humiliated;
