A Hymn Of Praise To God

14 Every man is stupid for lack of knowledge; every refiner is put to shame by the graven image; for his molten image is a lie, and no breath is in them. 15 They are vanity, the work of delusion; in the time of their judgment they shall perish. 16 The Portion of Jacob is not like them; for He is the Maker of all things; and Israel is the rod of His inheritance. Jehovah of Hosts is His name.
