Do not be afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither is it in them to do good. 6 There is none like you, O LORD; you are great, and your name is great in might. 7 Who would not fear you, O King of nations? for it belongs to you: among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like you. 8 But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the wooden idol is a doctrine of vanities. 9 Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple are their clothing: they are all the work of skilled men.
