6 Indeed, O Lord, you have abandoned your people,the descendants of Jacob.For diviners from the east are everywhere;they consult omen readers like the Philistines do.Plenty of foreigners are around.
7 Their land is full of gold and silver;there is no end to their wealth.Their land is full of horses;there is no end to their chariots.
8 Their land is full of worthless idols;they worship the product of their own hands,what their own fingers have fashioned.
9 Men bow down to them in homage,they lie flat on the ground in worship.Don’t spare them!
10 Go up into the rocky cliffs,hide in the ground.Get away from the dreadful judgment of the Lord,from his royal splendor!
11 Proud men will be brought low,arrogant men will be humiliated;the Lord alone will be exaltedin that day.
12 Indeed, the Lord who commands armies has planned a day of judgment,for all the high and mighty,for all who are proud – they will be humiliated;
