who feels shame only when he gets caught.
They, their kings, officials, priests, and prophets—
all are alike in this.

‘You are my father.’
To an idol chiseled from a block of stone they say,
‘You are my mother.’
They turn their backs on me,
but in times of trouble they cry out to me,
‘Come and save us!’

And we all hear these people speaking in our own languages about the wonderful things God has done!”
