What Can Idols Do?

Worshipers of idols
comfort each other,
    saying, “Don't worry!”
Woodcarvers, goldsmiths,
    and other workers[a]
encourage one another and say,
    “We've done a great job!”
Then they nail the idol down,
    so it won't fall over.

The Lord's Chosen Servant

(A) Israel, you are my servant.
I chose you, the family
    of my friend Abraham.
