Judges 10:14Easy To Read VersionYou like worshiping those gods, so go call to them for help. Let those gods save you when you are in trouble.” See the chapter |
Those people put their false god on their shoulders and carry it. That false god is useless—people have to carry it! People set the statue on the ground; and that false god can’t move. That false god never walks away from its place. People can yell at it, but it will not answer. That false god is only a statue—it can’t save people from their troubles.
When you need help,\par you cry to those false gods\par that you have gathered around you.\par Let them help you!\par But I tell you,\par the wind will blow them all away.\par A puff of wind will blow them all away.\par But the person that depends on me\par will get the land \{I promised\}.\par That person will have my holy mountain. {\cf2\super [445]} \par
Now, family of Israel, the Lord my Master says these things, “If any person wants to worship his filthy idols, then let him go and worship them. But later, don’t think you will get any advice from me! You will not ruin my name any more! Not when you continue to give your gifts to your filthy idols.”
