13. O you that dwell by many waters, abundant in treasures, your end has come, and the measure of your covetousness.
14. The LORD of hosts has sworn by himself, saying,
15. He has made the earth by his power, he has established the world by his wisdom, and has stretched out the heaven by his understanding.
16. When he utters his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth: he makes lightnings with rain, and brings forth the wind out of his storehouses.
17. Every man is senseless by his knowledge; every goldsmith is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
18. They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their judgment they shall perish.
19. The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the maker of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts is his name.
