Jeremiah 13:9

¹⁹I will break the pride of your power, and I will make your sky like iron, and your soil like bronze.

¹⁰Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty. ¹¹The lofty looks of man will be brought low, the arrogance of men will be bowed down, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day. ¹²For there will be a day of the LORD of Armies for all that is proud and arrogant, and for all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low— ¹³for all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan, ¹⁴for all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up, ¹⁵for every lofty tower, for every fortified wall, ¹⁶for all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery. ¹⁷The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the arrogance of men shall be brought low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

¹⁵Hear, and give ear. Don’t be proud, for the LORD has spoken. ¹⁶Give glory to the LORD your God, before he causes darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and while you look for light, he turns it into the shadow of death, and makes it deep darkness. ¹⁷But if you will not hear it, my soul will weep in secret for your pride. My eye will weep bitterly, and run down with tears, because the LORD’s flock has been taken captive.

¹¹In that day you will not be disappointed for all your doings in which you have transgressed against me; for then I will take away out from among you your proudly exulting ones, and you will no more be arrogant in my holy mountain.

⁹The LORD of Armies has planned it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.

¹⁸Pride goes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.

⁴When the vessel that he made of the clay was marred in the hand of the potter, he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.

⁵Then the LORD’s word came to me, saying, ⁶“House of Israel, can’t I do with you as this potter?” says the LORD. “Behold, as the clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand, house of Israel.

⁵Our pursuers are on our necks. We are weary, and have no rest. ⁶We have given our hands to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread. ⁷Our fathers sinned, and are no more. We have borne their iniquities. ⁸Servants rule over us. There is no one to deliver us out of their hand.

⁶We have heard of the pride of Moab, that he is very proud; even of his arrogance, his pride, and his wrath. His boastings are nothing.

²For the LORD restores the excellency of Jacob as the excellency of Israel, for the destroyers have destroyed them and ruined their vine branches.
