Isaiah 46:8

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Remember this, and shew yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors.

Such people do not comprehend
and cannot understand,
for He has shut their eyes so they cannot see,
and their minds so they cannot understand.

they would understand their fate.

Those who make them are just like them,
as are all who trust in them.

They are both stupid and foolish,
instructed by worthless idols
made of wood!

Brothers, don’t be childish in your thinking, but be infants in regard to evil and adult in your thinking.

for what makes everything clear is light. Therefore it is said:

Get up, sleeper, and rise up from the dead,
and the Messiah will shine on you.

Do not make an idol for yourself, whether in the shape of anything in the heavens above or on the earth below or in the waters under the earth.

Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
Has it not been declared to you
from the beginning?
Have you not considered
the foundations of the earth?
