  • God’s Blessing on Israel

    “Yet hear now, O Jacob My servant,
    And Israel whom I have chosen.
  • thus saith Jehovah, that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, who helpeth thee, Fear not, Jacob, my servant, and thou, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
  • Thus says the Lord who made you
    And formed you from the womb, who will help you:
    ‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant;
    And you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
  • For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground; I will pour my Spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring.
  • For I will pour water on him who is thirsty,
    And floods on the dry ground;
    I will pour My Spirit on your descendants,
    And My blessing on your offspring;
  • And they shall spring up among the grass, as willows by the water-courses.
  • They will spring up among the grass
    Like willows by the watercourses.’
  • One shall say, I am Jehovah's; and another shall call [himself] by the name of Jacob; and another shall write with his hand: [I am] Jehovah's, and surname [himself] by the name of Israel.
  • One will say, ‘I am the Lord’s’;
    Another will call himself by the name of Jacob;
    Another will write with his hand, ‘The Lord’s,’
    And name himself by the name of Israel.
  • Only One is God

    Thus saith Jehovah, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer, Jehovah of hosts: I [am] the first, and I [am] the last, and beside me there is no God.
  • There Is No Other God

    And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
    ‘I am the First and I am the Last;
    Besides Me there is no God.
  • And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? And the coming things, and those that shall happen, let them declare unto them.
  • And who can proclaim as I do?
    Then let him declare it and set it in order for Me,
    Since I appointed the ancient people.
    And the things that are coming and shall come,
    Let them show these to them.
  • Fear not, neither be afraid. Have I not caused thee to hear from that time, and have declared it? and ye are my witnesses. Is there a +God beside me? yea, there is no Rock: I know not any.
  • Do not fear, nor be afraid;
    Have I not told you from that time, and declared it?
    You are My witnesses.
    Is there a God besides Me?
    Indeed there is no other Rock;
    I know not one.’ ”
  • The Folly of Idolatry

    They that form a graven image are all of them vanity, and their delectable things are of no profit; and they are their own witnesses: they see not, nor know; -- that they may be ashamed.
  • Idolatry Is Foolishness

    Those who make an image, all of them are useless,
    And their precious things shall not profit;
    They are their own witnesses;
    They neither see nor know, that they may be ashamed.
  • Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image that is profitable for nothing?
  • Who would form a god or mold an image
    That profits him nothing?
  • Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed; and the workmen are but men. Let them all be gathered together, let them stand up: they shall fear, they shall be ashamed together.
  • Surely all his companions would be ashamed;
    And the workmen, they are mere men.
    Let them all be gathered together,
    Let them stand up;
    Yet they shall fear,
    They shall be ashamed together.
  • The iron-smith [hath] a chisel, and he worketh in the coals, and he fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with his strong arm; -- but he is hungry, and his strength faileth; he hath not drunk water, and he is faint.
  • The blacksmith with the tongs works one in the coals,
    Fashions it with hammers,
    And works it with the strength of his arms.
    Even so, he is hungry, and his strength fails;
    He drinks no water and is faint.
  • The worker in wood stretcheth out a line; he marketh it out with red chalk; he formeth it with sharp tools, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of man: that it may remain in the house.
  • The craftsman stretches out his rule,
    He marks one out with chalk;
    He fashions it with a plane,
    He marks it out with the compass,
    And makes it like the figure of a man,
    According to the beauty of a man, that it may remain in the house.
  • When he heweth him down cedars, he taketh also a holm-oak and a terebinth -- he chooseth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth a pine, and the rain maketh [it] grow.

    And takes the cypress and the oak;

    With this half he eats meat;
    He roasts a roast, and is satisfied.
    He even warms himself and says,
    “Ah! I am warm,
    I have seen the fire.”
  • And with the remainder thereof he maketh a god, his graven image; he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me, for thou art my god.
  • And the rest of it he makes into a god,
    His carved image.
    He falls down before it and worships it,

    “Deliver me, for you are my god!”
  • They have no knowledge, and understand not; for he hath plastered their eyes, that they may not see; and their hearts, that they may not understand.

    I have roasted meat and eaten it;
    And shall I make the rest of it an abomination?
    Shall I fall down before a block of wood?”

    O Israel, you will not be forgotten by Me!
