你們不要懼怕，也不要害怕！難道我從前不就告知了你們、向你們宣告了嗎？你們是我的見證人！除我以外，難道還有神嗎？沒有別的磐石！我知道沒有！」塑造偶像的全都虛空，他們所喜愛的毫無益處；為偶像本身作見證的，一無所見，一無所知，他們都必蒙羞。誰塑造了神像、鑄造了毫無益處的偶像呢？

我們的神在天上，他所願的一切，他都去行。列國的偶像是銀的、金的，是人手所造的：它們有嘴卻不能說，有眼卻不能看；有耳卻不能聽，有鼻卻不能聞；有手卻不能摸，有腳卻不能走，也不能用喉嚨發出聲音。那些造它們的、所有依靠它們的，都會像它們那樣。

關於吃祭過偶像的食物，我們知道「世界上的偶像是虛無的」，也知道「除了神一位之外，沒有別的神。」

難道甲尼不是與迦基米施一樣嗎？哈馬不是與亞珥拔一樣嗎？撒馬利亞不是與大馬士革一樣嗎？我的手已經伸到了這些拜偶像的國家，他們的雕刻偶像比耶路撒冷和撒馬利亞還多，

可是你們看見了也聽見了，這個保羅不僅在以弗所也幾乎在全亞細亞省，說服、引誘了一大群人，說『人手所造的不是神』。

耶和華啊，亞述列王確實使列國和它們的國土荒廢，又把它們的神像扔進火中；那些神像之所以被滅絕，是因為它們不是神，只不過是人手所造的，是用木頭、石頭造的！耶和華我們的神哪，現在求你拯救我們脫離亞述王的手，使地上萬國都知道，唯獨你——你是耶和華！」

因著神所賜給他的權勢，所有的民族、國家、語言群體都在他面前戰兢恐懼；他想要殺誰就殺誰，想要讓誰活就讓誰活，想要高舉誰就高舉誰，想要降卑誰就降卑誰。

如今我尼布甲尼撒稱讚、高舉、尊崇天上的王，因為他一切的作為都是確實的，一切的道路都是公正的，他能使行事驕傲的人降卑。

我的手找到列國的財富，如同找到鳥巢；我收取全地，好像收取遺棄的鳥蛋；沒有一個扇翅膀的，沒有一個張嘴的，也沒有一個啼叫的。」

我祖先所毀滅的，有歌撒、哈蘭和利色，還有在提拉撒的伊甸子孫，那些國的神明解救他們了嗎？哈馬的王、亞珥拔的王，拉伊珥、西法瓦音、希拿、以瓦的眾王，如今都在哪裡呢？』」

開口說：「這大巴比倫，難道不是我以自己的權能力量建為國都，為要顯出我威嚴的尊榮嗎？」
