A Hymn Of Praise To God

14 Every son of earth hath become too brutish to discern, Every goldsmith, hath been put to shame by a graven image, - For a falsehood, is his molten image, Seeing there is no breath in them. 15 Vanity, they are, the handiwork of mockeries, - In the time of their visitation, shall they perish. 16 Not like these, is the portion of Jacob, For the fashioner of all things, is, he, And, Israel, is his inherited sceptre, - Yahweh of hosts, is his name.
