1. Lord, you should receive the honor, not us. The honor belongs to you because of your faithful love and loyalty.
2. Why should the nations wonder where our God is?
3. Our God is in heaven, and he does whatever he wants.
4. The “gods” of those nations are only statues that some human made from gold and silver.
5. Those statues have mouths, but cannot talk. They have eyes, but cannot see.
6. They have ears, but cannot hear. They have noses, but cannot smell.
7. They have hands, but cannot feel. They have feet, but cannot walk. No sounds come from their throats.
8. The people who make and trust in those statues will become like them!
9. People of Israel, trust in the Lord! He is your strength and shield.
