1 Family of Israel, listen to what the Lord says to you.
2 This is what he says:“Don’t live like the people from other nations.Don’t be afraid of special signs in the sky,even though the other nations are afraid of them.
3 The customs of other people are worth nothing.Their idols are nothing but wood from the forest.They are made by a worker with his chisel.
4 They decorate their idols with silver and gold.With hammers and nails they fasten them down.That keeps them from falling over.
