Those who are followers of worthless idols Abandon their faithfulness,

那信奉虚无之神的人，离弃怜爱他们的主；

那信奉虚无神明的人，丢弃自己的慈爱；

那信奉虚无神明的人，丢弃自己的慈爱；

那些信奉虚无神明的人，背弃了怜爱他们的主，

那敬奉虚妄之偶像的人，实在是离弃了怜爱他们的神（“怜爱他们的神”原文作“他们的恩典”）。

那些信奉虚妄假神的人，他们背弃了对你的忠诚；

那信奉虛無之神的人，離棄憐愛他們的主；

那信奉虛無神明的人，丟棄自己的慈愛；

那信奉虛無神明的人，丟棄自己的慈愛；

那些信奉虛無神明的人，背棄了憐愛他們的主，

那敬奉虛妄之偶像的人，實在是離棄了憐愛他們的神（“憐愛他們的神”原文作“他們的恩典”）。

那些尊重虛而妄之偶像的人撇棄了他們堅貞之愛。

那些信奉虛妄假神的人，他們背棄了對你的忠誠；

凡務虛妄者、乃自絕慈惠、

凡賴虛偽者、棄厥恩主、

惟彼崇事虛偽者、遺棄向彼施恩之主、遺棄向彼施恩之主或作終棄其虔敬

“ Those who cling to worthless idols turn away from God’s love for them.

“ Some people worship the worthless statues of their gods. They turn away from God’s love for them.

Those who pay regard to vain idols forsake their hope of steadfast love.

Those who worship false gods turn their backs on all God’s mercies.

Those who cherish worthless idols abandon their faithful love,

“ Those who regard worthless idols Forsake their own Mercy.

They that regard lying vanities Forsake their own mercy.

Those who cling to worthless idols forsake faithful love,

They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.

Those who worship worthless idols forfeit the mercy that could be theirs.

Those who regard lying vanities forsake their own mercy.

I hate those who devote themselves to worthless idols, But I trust in the Lord.

“ For My people have committed two evils: They have abandoned Me, The fountain of living waters, To carve out for themselves cisterns, Broken cisterns That do not hold water.

They rejected His statutes and His covenant which He made with their fathers, and His warnings which He gave them. And they followed idols and became empty, and followed the nations that surrounded them, about which the Lord had commanded them not to do as they did.

But they are altogether stupid and foolish; The instruction from idols is nothing but wood!

Indeed, you must not turn aside, for then you would go after useless things which cannot benefit or save, because they are useless.

Every person is stupid, devoid of knowledge; Every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols, For his cast metal images are deceitful, And there is no breath in them.They are worthless, a work of mockery; At the time of their punishment they will perish.

Lord, my strength and my stronghold, And my refuge in the day of distress, To You the nations will come From the ends of the earth and say,“ Our fathers have inherited nothing but falsehood, Futility, and things of no benefit.”

“ What benefit is a carved image when its maker has carved it, Or a cast metal image, a teacher of falsehood? For its maker trusts in his own handiwork When he fashions speechless idols.Woe to him who says to a piece of wood,‘ Awake!’ To a mute stone,‘ Arise!’ That is your teacher? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, Yet there is no breath at all inside it.But the Lord is in His holy temple. Let all the earth be silent before Him.”
