10Woe to him who says to a father, "What have you become the father of?" or to a woman, "With what do you travail?"
11Thus says Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: Ask me of the things that are to come; concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands, command you me.
12I have made the earth, and created man on it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens; and all their host have I commanded.
13I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make straight all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward, says Yahweh of Hosts.
14Thus says Yahweh: "The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to you, and they shall be yours. They shall go after you. In chains they shall come over; and they shall fall down to you. They shall make supplication to you: `Surely God is in you; and there is none else, there is no other god.
15Most assuredly you are a God who hid yourself, God of Israel, the Savior.` "
16They shall be put to shame, yes, confounded, all of them; they shall go into confusion together who are makers of idols.
