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.

English Standard Version
The Day of the Lord
6 For you have rejected your people,
the house of Jacob,
because they are full of things (A)from the east
and (B)of fortune-tellers (C)like the Philistines,
and they (D)strike hands with the children of foreigners.
7 Their land is (E)filled with silver and gold,
and there is no end to their treasures;
their land is (F)filled with horses,
and there is no end to their chariots.
8 Their land is (G)filled with idols;
they bow down to (H)the work of their hands,
to what their own fingers have made.
9 So man (I)is humbled,
and each one (J)is brought low—
do not forgive them!
