Beaten silver is brought from Tarshish,
    and gold from Uphaz.
The idols are[a] the work of a craftsman[b]
    and of the hands of a goldsmith.

    and the nations cannot endure his indignation.

11 [d]Tell this to them: “The gods who[e] didn’t make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from these heavens.”
