The Futility of Idols and the Trustworthiness of God

1 Not ^aunto us, O Lord, not unto us,
But to Your name give glory,
Because of Your mercy,
Because of Your truth.

2 Why should the¹ Gentiles say,
^a“So where is their God?”

The work of men’s hands.

5 They have mouths, but they do not speak;
Eyes they have, but they do not see;
