Isaiah 2:8 In-Context

6 For you have forsaken your people, house of Jacob, because they are full from [the] east, and [of] soothsayers like the Philistines, and {they make alliances} 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 hands, to what they made [with] their fingers.

9 So humanity is humbled; everyone is humbled, and you must not forgive them.

10 Enter into the rock and hide yourself in the dust from the presence of the terror of Yahweh and from the glory of his majesty.
