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

A Hymn of Praise to God

12 The Lord is[c] the one who made
    the world by his power,
who established the earth by his wisdom
    and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.
13 When his voice sounds there is thunder
    from the waters of heaven,
and he makes clouds rise up from
    the ends of the earth.
He makes lightning for the rain
    and brings wind out of his storehouses.
