The Day of the Lord

For you have rejected your people,
    the house of Jacob,
because they are full of things (A)from the east
    and (B)of fortune-tellers (C)like the Philistines,
    and they (D)strike hands with the children of foreigners.
Their land is (E)filled with silver and gold,
    and there is no end to their treasures;
their land is (F)filled with horses,
    and there is no end to their chariots.
Their land is (G)filled with idols;
    they bow down to (H)the work of their hands,
    to what their own fingers have made.
So man (I)is humbled,
    and each one (J)is brought low—
    do not forgive them!
10 (K)Enter into the rock
    and hide in the dust
(L)from before the terror of the Lord,
    and from the splendor of his majesty.
11 (M)The haughty looks of man shall be brought low,
    and the lofty pride of men shall be humbled,
and the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.
