The Terror of the Day of the Lord

10

Go into the rocks and hide in the dust from the terror of the LORD and the splendor of His majesty.

11

The proud look of man will be humbled, and the loftiness of men brought low; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.

12

For the Day of the LORD of Hosts will come against all the proud and lofty, against all that is exalted— it will be humbled—

13

against all the cedars of Lebanon, lofty and lifted up, against all the oaks of Bashan,

14

against all the tall mountains, against all the high hills,

15

against every high tower, against every fortified wall,

16

against every ship of Tarshish, and against every stately vessel.

17

So the pride of man will be brought low, and the loftiness of men will be humbled; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day,

18

and the idols will vanish completely.

19

Men will flee to caves in the rocks and holes in the ground, away from the terror of the LORD and from the splendor of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth.

20

In that day men will cast away to the moles and bats their idols of silver and gold— the idols they made to worship.

21

They will flee to caverns in the rocks and crevices in the cliffs, away from the terror of the LORD and from the splendor of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth.

22

Put no more trust in man, who has only the breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?
