15 Behold, the nations are as a drop in a bucket,
And are counted as the small dust on the scales;
Look, He lifts up the isles as a very little thing.
And are counted as the small dust on the scales;
Look, He lifts up the isles as a very little thing.
17 All nations before Him are as anothing,
And bthey are counted by Him less than nothing and worthless.
And bthey are counted by Him less than nothing and worthless.
19 aThe workman molds an image,
The goldsmith overspreads it with gold,
And the silversmith casts silver chains.
The goldsmith overspreads it with gold,
And the silversmith casts silver chains.
20 Whoever is too impoverished for such1 a contribution
Chooses a tree that will not rot;
He seeks for himself a skillful workman
aTo prepare a carved image that will not totter.
Chooses a tree that will not rot;
He seeks for himself a skillful workman
aTo prepare a carved image that will not totter.
