11  The haughty looks of man shall be brought low,

and the lofty pride of men shall be humbled,

and the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

12  ^tFor the Lord of hosts has a day

against all that is proud and lofty,

against all that is lifted up—and it shall be brought low;

13  ^uagainst all the cedars of Lebanon,

lofty and lifted up;

and against all the oaks of Bashan;

14  against all the lofty mountains,

and against all the uplifted hills;

15  against every high tower,

and against every fortified wall;

16  against all the ^vships of ^wTarshish,

and against all the beautiful craft.

17  And the haughtiness of man shall be humbled,

and the lofty pride of men shall be brought low,

and the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.

33  Behold, the Lord God of hosts

will lop the boughs with terrifying power;

the great in height will be hewn down,

and the lofty will be brought low.

11  I will ⁱpunish the world for its evil,

and the wicked for their iniquity;

I will put an end to the pomp of the arrogant,

and lay low the pompous pride of the ruthless.

6  ^rWe have heard of the ^spride of Moab—

how proud he is!—

of his arrogance, his pride, and his insolence;

in his idle boasting he is not right.

9  The Lord of hosts has purposed it,

to defile the pompous pride of all glory,¹

to dishonor all the honored of the earth.

1  Ah, the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim,

and the ^dfading flower of its glorious beauty,

which is on the head of the rich valley of those overcome with wine!

2  Behold, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong;

like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest,

like a storm of mighty, overflowing waters,

he casts down to the earth with his hand.

3  The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim

will be trodden underfoot;

4  and the fading flower of its glorious beauty,

which is on the head of the rich valley,

will be like a ^efirst-ripe fig¹ before the summer:

when someone sees it, he swallows it

as soon as it is in his hand.
