and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:
16
But the L
ORD
of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.
17
Then shall the lambs feed after their manner, and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers
eat.
18
Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as it were with a cart rope:
19
That say, Let him make speed,
and
hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the
Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know
it!
20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for
darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21
Woe unto
them that are
wise in their own
eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
22
Woe unto
them that are
mighty to drink wine, and men of
strength to mingle strong drink:
23
Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the
righteousness of the righteous from him!
24
Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the
flame consumeth the chaff,
so
their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as
dust: because they have cast away the law of the L
ORD
of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy
One of Israel.
25
Therefore is the anger of the L
ORD
kindled against his people, and he hath stretched
forth his hand against them, and hath smitten them: and the hills did tremble, and their carcases
were
torn in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand
is
stretched
out still.
26
And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of
the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly:
27
None shall be weary nor stumble
among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the
latchet of their shoes be broken:
28
Whose arrows
are
sharp, and all their bows bent, their horses’
hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind:
29
Their roaring
shall be
like a
lion, they shall roar like young lions: yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry
it
away safe, and none shall deliver
it.
30
And in that day they shall roar against them like the
roaring of the sea: and if
one
look unto the land, behold darkness
and
sorrow, and the light is
darkened in the heavens thereof.
CHAPTER 6
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and
his train filled the temple.
2
Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he
covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3
And one cried
unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy,
is
the L
ORD
of hosts: the whole earth
is
full of his glory.
4
And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with
smoke.
5
Then said I, Woe
is
me! for I am undone; because I
am
a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in
the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the L
ORD
of hosts.
6
Then
