12 It is aHe who made the earth by His power,
Who bestablished the world by His wisdom;
And by His understanding He has cstretched out the heavens.
13 When He gives forth His avoice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,
And He causes the bclouds to ascend from the end of the earth;
He makes lightning for the rain,
And brings out the cwind from His storehouses.
14 Every man is asenseless, devoid of knowledge;
Every goldsmith is put to shame by his graven images;
For his molten images are a lie,
And there is no breath in them.
15 They are avanity, a work of mockery;
In the btime of their punishment they will perish.
16 The aportion of Jacob is not like these;
For the bMaker of all is He,
And cIsrael is the tribe of His inheritance;
dYahweh of hosts is His name.
