Context Readings

A Hymn Of Praise To God

12 He has made the earth by his power. He has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding he has stretched out the heavens. 13 When he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings for the rain, and brings forth the wind out of his treasuries. 14 Every man has become brutish, without knowledge. Every goldsmith is put to shame by his graven image. For his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
