11 “Tell them this: ‘These gods, who did not make the heavens and the earth, will perish from the earth and from under the heavens.’ ”

12 But God made the earth by his power;

he founded the world by his wisdom

and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.

13 When he thunders, the waters in the heavens roar;

he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth.

He sends lightning with the rain

and brings out the wind from his storehouses.

11 Thus shall you say to them: “The gods who did not make the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth and from under the heavens.”

12 It is he who made the earth by his power,

who established the world by his wisdom,

and by his understanding stretched out the heavens.

13 When he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,

and he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth.

He makes lightning for the rain,

and he brings forth the wind from his storehouses.

11 Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.

12 He hath made the earth by his power,

He hath established the world by his wisdom,

And hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.

13 When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens,

And he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth;

He maketh lightnings with rain,

And bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.

11 Say this to those who worship other gods: “Your so-called gods, who did not make the heavens and earth, will vanish from the earth and from under the heavens.”

12 But the Lord made the earth by his power,

and he preserves it by his wisdom.

With his own understanding

he stretched out the heavens.

13 When he speaks in the thunder,

the heavens roar with rain.

He causes the clouds to rise over the earth.

He sends the lightning with the rain

and releases the wind from his storehouses.

11 “Tell them this message: ‘These gods did not make heaven and earth; they will be destroyed and disappear from heaven and earth.’ ”

12 God made the earth by his power.

He used his wisdom to build the world

and his understanding to stretch out the skies.

13 When he thunders, the waters in the skies roar.

He makes clouds rise in the sky all over the earth.

He sends lightning with the rain

and brings out the wind from his storehouses.

11 Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.

12 He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding hath he stretched out the heavens. 13 When he uttereth his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries.

11 Thus shall ye say unto them: The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens. 12 He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his understanding. 13 When he uttereth his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the end of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries.

11 Tell them this: These gods will disappear from the earth 

and from under heaven because they didn’t make heaven and earth. 

12 The Lord made the earth by his power. 

He set up the world by his skill. 

He stretched out the world by his understanding. 

13 He speaks, and the water in the sky produces a storm. 

He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth. 

He makes lightning flash with the rain. 

He brings wind out of his storehouses. 

11 You are to say this to them, “The gods that did not make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under these heavens.”

12 He made the earth by His power,

established the world by His wisdom,

and spread out the heavens by His understanding.

13 When He thunders,

the waters in the heavens are in turmoil,

and He causes the clouds to rise

from the ends of the earth.

He makes lightning for the rain

and brings the wind from His storehouses.

11 Thus shall you say to them: The gods who did not make the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth and from under the heavens.

12 It is he who made the earth by his power,

who established the world by his wisdom,

and by his understanding stretched out the heavens.

13 When he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,

and he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth.

He makes lightnings for the rain,

and he brings out the wind from his storehouses.

11 “Thus you shall say to them,

‘Gods who did not make the heavens and the earth

will perish from the earth and from under these heavens.

12 He is the maker of the earth by his power,

who created the world by his wisdom,

and by his understanding he stretched out heaven.

13 When he utters his voice there is a noise of water in the heavens,

and he causes the mist to rise from the ends of the earth.

He makes lightning for the rain,

and he causes the wind to go out from his storehouses.

11 The Lord says to the Jews who are living in Babylonia, “Tell the people of the nations, ‘Your gods did not make the heavens and the earth. In fact, those gods will disappear from the earth. They will vanish from under the heavens.’ ”

12 But God used his power to make the earth.

His wisdom set the world in place.

His understanding spread the heavens out.

13 When he thunders, the waters in the heavens roar.

He makes clouds rise from one end of the earth to the other.

He sends lightning along with the rain.

He brings the wind out from his storerooms.

11 Thus you shall say to them, “The gods that did not make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under the heavens.”

12 It is He who made the earth by His power,

Who established the world by His wisdom;

And by His understanding He has stretched out the heavens.

13 When He utters His voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,

And He causes the clouds to ascend from the end of the earth;

He makes lightning for the rain,

And brings out the wind from His storehouses.
