Come, let us worship and bow down;
let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.

May you be blessed by the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

Our help is in the name of Yahweh,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

May the Lord,
Maker of heaven and earth,
bless you from Zion.

the Maker of heaven and earth,
the sea and everything in them.
He remains faithful forever,

Let Israel celebrate its Maker;
let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.

The one who oppresses the poor person insults his Maker,
but one who is kind to the needy honors Him.

The one who mocks the poor insults his Maker,
and one who rejoices over calamity
will not go unpunished.

On that day people will look to their Maker and will turn their eyes to the Holy One of Israel.

When its branches dry out, they will be broken off.
Women will come and make fires with them,
for they are not a people with understanding.
Therefore their Maker will not have compassion on them,
and their Creator will not be gracious to them.

You have turned things around,
as if the potter were the same as the clay.
How can what is made say about its maker,
“He didn’t make me”?
How can what is formed
say about the one who formed it,
“He doesn’t understand what he’s doing”?

This is the word of the Lord
your Maker who formed you from the womb;
He will help you:
Do not fear; Jacob is My servant;
I have chosen Jeshurun.

“Woe to the one who argues with his Maker—
one clay pot among many.
Does clay say to the one forming it,
‘What are you making?’
Or does your work say,
‘He has no hands’?

This is what the Lord,
the Holy One of Israel and its Maker, says:
“Ask Me what is to happen to My sons,
and instruct Me about the work of My hands.

But you have forgotten the Lord, your Maker,
who stretched out the heavens
and laid the foundations of the earth.
You are in constant dread all day long
because of the fury of the oppressor,
who has set himself to destroy.
But where is the fury of the oppressor?

Indeed, your husband is your Maker—
His name is Yahweh of Hosts—
and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer;
He is called the God of all the earth.

“Can a person be more righteous than God,
or a man more pure than his Maker?”

For I do not know how to give such titles;
otherwise, my Maker would remove me in an instant.

But no one asks, “Where is God my Maker,
who provides us with songs in the night,

I will get my knowledge from a distant place
and ascribe justice to my Maker.

He is the foremost of God’s works;
only his Maker can draw the sword against him.

Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces;
Judah has also multiplied fortified cities.
I will send fire on their cities,
and it will consume their citadels.

All of them are put to shame, even humiliated;
the makers of idols go in humiliation together.
