Isaiah 2:17

15 against every high tower, against every fortified wall,

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

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.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
