a“He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;
He makes lightnings for the rain;
He brings the wind out of His treasuries.”

Every metalsmith is put to shame by the carved image;
bFor his molded image is falsehood,
And there is no breath in them.
Every metalsmith is put to shame by the carved image;
bFor his molded image is falsehood,
And there is no breath in them.
19 The Portion of Jacob is not like them,
For He is the Maker of all things;
And Israel is the tribe of His inheritance.
The Lord of hosts is His name.
For He is the Maker of all things;
And Israel is the tribe of His inheritance.
The Lord of hosts is His name.
20 “Youa are My battle-ax and weapons of war:
For with you I will break the nation in pieces;
With you I will destroy kingdoms;
For with you I will break the nation in pieces;
With you I will destroy kingdoms;
