The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

The verse 11 is found in chapter 2 of Isaiah. After the vision of peace comes an accusation against Judah’s pride, its trust in wealth, horses, idols, and human alliances. The day of Yahweh will bring down all human greatness. The contrast with the opening verses is deliberate: God’s future kingdom cannot coexist with a community that attributes its security to its own strength.

Denn alle hohen Augen werden erniedrigt werden, und die hohe Männer sind, werden sich bücken müssen; der HERR aber wird allein hoch sein zu der Zeit.
La altivez de los ojos del hombre será abatida, y la soberbia de los hombres será humillada; y Jehová solo será ensalzado en aquel día.
L'homme au regard hautain sera abaissé, Et l'orgueilleux sera humilié: L'Eternel seul sera élevé ce jour-là.
Gli occhi altieri dell’uomo saranno abbassati, e l’altezza degli uomini sarà depressa; e il Signore solo sarà esaltato in quel giorno.
Os olhos altivos dos homens serão abatidos, e a sua altivez será humilhada; e só o SENHOR será exaltado naquele dia.
到那日,眼目高傲的必降卑, 狂妄的人必屈膝; 惟獨耶和華被尊崇。
