Judgement Pronounced on Arrogance

⁵ O house of Jacob,
   come, let us walk
   in the light of the Lord!
⁶ For you have forsaken the ways of^* your people,
   O house of Jacob.
Indeed they are full of diviners^* from the east
   and of soothsayers like the Philistines,
   and they clasp hands with foreigners.
⁷ Their land is filled with silver and gold,
   and there is no end to their treasures;
their land is filled with horses,
   and there is no end to their chariots.
⁸ Their land is filled with idols;
   they bow down to the work of their hands,
   to what their own fingers have made.
⁹ And so people are humbled,
   and everyone is brought low—
   do not forgive them!
¹⁰ Enter into the rock,
   and hide in the dust
from the terror of the Lord,
   and from the glory of his majesty.
¹¹ The haughty eyes of people shall be brought low,
   and the pride of everyone shall be humbled;
and the Lord alone will be exalted
   on that day.
