The Lord Is the Only True God

10 People of Israel, listen to what the Lord is telling you. ²He says,

“Do not follow the practices of other nations.
    Do not be terrified by warnings in the sky.
    Do not be afraid, even though the nations are terrified by them.
³The practices of these nations are worthless.
    People cut a tree out of the forest.
    A skilled worker shapes the wood with a sharp tool.

New International Version

God and Idols^(A)

10 Hear what the Lord says to you, people of Israel. ²This is what the Lord says:

“Do not learn the ways of the nations^(B)
    or be terrified by signs^(C) in the heavens,
    though the nations are terrified by them.
³For the practices of the peoples are worthless;
    they cut a tree out of the forest,
    and a craftsman^(D) shapes it with his chisel.^(E)
