16And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, Nor its beasts sufficient for a burnt-offering.
17All the nations [are] as nothing before Him, Less than nothing and emptiness, They have been reckoned to Him.

19The graven image poured out hath a artizan, And a refiner with gold spreadeth it over, And chains of silver he is refining.

22He who is sitting on the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants [are] as grasshoppers, He who is stretching out as a thin thing the heavens, And spreadeth them as a tent to dwell in.
