==== The proud shall be brought low ====

  * [[Isaiah]]
  * [[Isaiah 2]]

Reading Isaiah 2, he warns against the proud quite a lot (v6-22), warning them what will happen at the time of the Second Coming.  I think Alma 12:14 summarizes it nicely: "we would fain be glad if we could command the rocks and the mountains __to fall upon us, to hide us__ from his presence."

The  message seems to be that, while they are rich in their wordly accounts (v7) and they have sought after a life of worldliness (v8), that when the Lord comes, they will not be forgiven (v9), and they will in agony seek to separate them from themselves (v20-21).  The Lord will bring them all low, and He alone will be exalted, and destroy their riches, and their wicked works (the idols: the results of their hands) (v17-18).

When we stand before the Lord, everything we have sought with worldly desires will mean nothing.

See also 2 Nephi 9:28-30.  Isaiah 2 is the first chapter quoted by Nephi (2 Nephi 12).

  * 2 Ne 2:5 has more than Isaiah 2:5, and is a more tender call to mercy
  * 2 Ne 12:6 clarifies things a bit too.  The Lord has forsaken his people.
  * 2 Ne 12:10 adds that the Lord will smite them.
  * 2 Ne 12:12 - the day __soon cometh__ upon every nation
  * 2 Ne 12:13 - more verbosity
  * 2 Ne 12:14 - again, like in v12, it shall be upon all nations
  * 2 Ne 12:16 - upon all the ships of the sea, too
  * 2 Ne 12:19 - the fear of the Lord shall come upon them .. and smite them
  * 2 Nephi 12:21 - shall smite them
