Isaiah 2:6-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Judgment Pronounced on Arrogance
6 You have forsaken your people,
the house of Jacob,
for they are full of diviners[a] from the East
and of soothsayers like the Philistines,
and they clasp hands with foreigners.(A)
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.(B)
8 Their land is filled with idols;
they bow down to the work of their hands,
to what their own fingers have made.(C)
9 And so people are humbled,
and everyone is brought low—
[[do not forgive them!(D)

Isaiah 2:6-9
Lexham English Bible
6 For you have forsaken your people, house of Jacob,
because they are full[a] from the east,
and of soothsayers like the Philistines,
and they make alliances[b] with the offspring of foreigners.
7 And its land is filled with silver and gold,
and there is no end to its treasures;
and its land is filled with horses,
and there is no end to its chariots.
8 Its land is filled with idols;
they bow down to the work of their[c] hands,
to what they made with their[d] fingers.
9 So humanity is humbled;
everyone is humbled,
and you must not forgive them.
