No end to their treasures (Isaiah 2:7a)

And there is no end to their chariots (Isaiah 2:7b)

The haughtiness of men shall be bowed down
The LORD Himself shall be exalted in that day (Isaiah 2:11)
The day of the LORD of hosts shall come upon everything
Proud and lofty. (Isaiah 2:12)

2. Chastisement of the LORD to humble Israel
“Let me tell you what I will do to My vineyard
And break down its wall, and it shall be trampled down” (Isaiah 5:5)

I will also command the clouds not to rain on it (Isaiah 5:6)
d) Desolation to the land
Truly, many houses shall be desolate,
Great and beautiful ones, without inhabitant (Isaiah 5:9)

e) All humbled
People shall be brought down, each man shall be humbled,
And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled.

But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment
And God who is holy shall be hallowed in righteousness (Isaiah 5:15-16)
