Silver beaten from Tarshish is brought,
    and gold from Uphaz,
the work of the craftsman and the hands of the goldsmith.
Blue and purple are their clothing,
    all of them are the work of skillful people.
10 But Yahweh is the true God,
    he is the living God,
    and an everlasting king.[a]
Because of his wrath the earth quakes,
    and the nations cannot endure his anger.

11 Thus[b] you shall say to them,

‘Gods who did not make the heavens and the earth
    will perish from the earth and from under these heavens.
