Isaiah 2:12-17 (NRSV)
For
the LORD of hosts has a day
against all that is proud and lofty,
against all that is lifted up and high;
against all the cedars
of Lebanon,
lofty and lifted up;
and against all the oaks of Bashan;
against all the high mountains,
and against all the lofty hills;
against every high tower,
and against every fortified wall;
against
all the ships of Tarshish,
and against all the beautiful craft.
The haughtiness of people shall be humbled,
and the pride of everyone
shall be brought low;
and the LORD alone will be exalted on that day.
