Isaiah 2:9 Context
7Their land also is full of siluer and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures: their land is also full of horses; neither is there any end of their charets. 8Their land also is full of idoles: they worship the worke of their owne hands, that which their owne fingers haue made. 9And the meane man boweth downe, and the great man humbleth himselfe; therefore forgiue them not. 10¶ Enter into the rocke, and hide thee in the dust, for feare of the Lord, and for the glory of his Maiestie. 11The loftie lookes of man shalbe humbled, and the hautines of men shalbe bowed downe: and the Lord alone shalbe exalted in that day.
