15 People shall be brought down,
^aEach man shall be humbled,
And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled. ‡

16 But the Lord of hosts shall be ^aexalted in judgment,
And God who is holy shall be hallowed in righteousness. ‡

18 Woe to those who¹ draw iniquity with cords of vanity,
And sin as if with a cart rope; ‡

19 ^aThat 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 near and come,
That we may know it.” ‡
