57:13When you cry out for help, let your idols36 help you!
The wind blows them all away,37
a breeze carries them away.38
But the one who looks to me for help39 will inherit the land
and will have access to40 my holy mountain.”
Footnotes
- 36 The Hebrew text has קִבּוּצַיִךְ (qibbutsayikh, “your gatherings”), an otherwise unattested noun from the verbal root קָבַץ (qavats, “gather”). Perhaps this alludes to their religious assemblies and by metonymy to their rituals. Since idolatry is a prominent theme in the context, some understand this as a reference to a collection of idols. The second half of the verse also favors this view.
- 37 Heb “all of them a wind lifts up.”
- 38 Heb “a breath takes [them] away.”
- 39 Or “seeks refuge in me.” “Seeking refuge” is a metonymy for “being loyal to.”
- 40 Heb “possess, own.” The point seems to be that he will have free access to God’s presence, as if God’s temple mount were his personal possession.

Let’s see if your idols can save you
when you cry to them for help.
Why, a puff of wind can knock them down!
If you just breathe on them, they fall over!
But whoever trusts in me will inherit the land
and possess my holy mountain.”
