7. Who would not fear You,O King of the nations?Indeed, it is Your due.For among all the wise men of the nations,and in all their kingdoms,there is no one like You.
8. But they are altogether unthinking and foolish;the tree is a doctrine of vanities.
9. Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish,and gold from Uphaz,the work of the workman and of the hands of the founder;blue and purple are their clothing;they all are the work of skilled men.
10. But the Lord is the true God;He is the living God and an everlasting King.At His wrath the earth trembles,and the nations cannot endure His indignation.
11. Thus you shall say to them: The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens.
12. He has made the earth by His power.He has established the world by His wisdomand has stretched out the heavens by His discretion.
13. When He utters His voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens,and He causes the vapors to ascend from the remote parts of the earth;He makes lightning with rain,and brings out the wind from His storehouses.
14. Every man is stupid, without knowledge;every goldsmith is put to shame by an idol;for his molded image is false,and there is no breath in them.
