Isaiah23:9
9 The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.
This is the Lord's own doing; therefore do not doubt it, nor wonder at it.
God's Design is by this one Example to abate and abase the Pride of all the Potentates of the Earth, that they may see and know what weak and wretched Creatures they are, when God leaves them, and sets himself against them.
