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.
