Thus saith Jehovah, After this manner will I mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.

Thus saith the LORD, After this manner will I mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.

“ I, the LORD, say:‘ This shows how I will ruin the highly exalted position in which Judah and Jerusalem take pride.

“ Yahweh says,‘ In this way I, will ruin the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.

I will break down your strong pride. I will make your sky like iron and your land like bronze,

Listen and pay attention. Do not be proud, for the Lord has spoken.Give glory to the Lord your God before He brings darkness, before your feet stumble on the mountains at dusk. You wait for light, but He brings darkest gloom and makes thick darkness.But if you will not listen, my innermost being will weep in secret because of your pride. My eyes will overflow with tears, for the Lord’s flock has been taken captive.

Go into the rocks and hide in the dust from the terror of the Lord and from His majestic splendor.Human pride will be humbled, and the loftiness of men will be brought low; the Lord alone will be exalted on that day.For a day belonging to the Lord of Hosts is coming against all that is proud and lofty, against all that is lifted up— it will be humbled—against all the cedars of Lebanon, lofty and lifted up, against all the oaks of Bashan,against all the high mountains, against all the lofty hills,against every high tower, against every fortified wall,against every ship of Tarshish, and against every splendid sea vessel.So human pride will be brought low, and the loftiness of men will be humbled; the Lord alone will be exalted on that day.

The Lord of Hosts planned it, to desecrate all its glorious beauty, to disgrace all the honored ones of the earth.

On that day you will not be put to shame because of everything you have done in rebelling against Me. For then I will remove your proud, arrogant people from among you, and you will never again be haughty on My holy mountain.

We have heard of Moab’s pride, great pride, indeed— his insolence, arrogance, pride, and haughty heart.

They were haughty and did detestable things before Me, so I removed them when I saw this.

Pride comes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.

But He gives greater grace. Therefore He says: God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.

We have heard of Moab’s pride— how very proud he is— his haughtiness, his pride, his arrogance, and his empty boasting.

I tell you, this one went down to his house justified rather than the other; because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”

For the Lord will restore the majesty of Jacob, yes, the majesty of Israel, though ravagers have ravaged them and ruined their vine branches.

In the same way, you younger men, be subject to the elders. And all of you clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.

We are closely pursued; we are tired, and no one offers us rest.We made a treaty with Egypt and with Assyria, to get enough food.Our fathers sinned; they no longer exist, but we bear their punishment.Slaves rule over us; no one rescues us from their hands.

But the jar that he was making from the clay became flawed in the potter’s hand, so he made it into another jar, as it seemed right for him to do.The word of the Lord came to me:“ House of Israel, can I not treat you as this potter treats his clay?”— this is the Lord’s declaration.“ Just like clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, house of Israel.

Didn’t you treat your sister Sodom as an object of scorn when you were proud,

Adorn yourself with majesty and splendor, and clothe yourself with honor and glory.Unleash your raging anger; look on every proud person and humiliate him.Look on every proud person and humble him; trample the wicked where they stand.
