The work of his hands;
He will not respect what his afingers have made,
Nor the1 wooden images nor the incense altars.

Which they left because of the children of Israel;
And there will be desolation.
And have not been mindful of the Rock of your1 stronghold,
Therefore you will plant pleasant plants
And set out foreign seedlings;
And in the morning you will make your seed to flourish;
But the harvest will be a heap of ruins
In the day of grief and desperate sorrow.
Who make a noise alike the roar of the seas,
And to the rushing of nations
That make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!
