There is no one like you, Yahweh.
    You are great,
    and your name is great in might.
Who shouldn’t fear you,
    King of the nations?
    For it belongs to you.
Because among all the wise men of the nations,
    and in all their royal estate,
    there is no one like you.
But they are together brutish and foolish,
    instructed by idols!
    It is just wood.
There is silver beaten into plates, which is brought from Tarshish,
    and gold from Uphaz,
    the work of the engraver and of the hands of the goldsmith.
Their clothing is blue and purple.
    They are all the work of skillful men.
10 But Yahweh is the true God.
    He is the living God,
    and an everlasting King.
At his wrath, the earth trembles.
    The nations aren’t able to withstand his indignation.

There is none like you, O Lord;
    you are great, and your name is great in might.(A)
Who would not fear you, O King of the nations?
    For that is your due;
among all the wise ones of the nations
    and in all their kingdoms
    there is no one like you.(B)
They are both stupid and foolish;
    the instruction given by idols
    is no better than wood![a](C)
Beaten silver is brought from Tarshish
    and gold from Uphaz.
They are the work of the artisan and of the hands of the goldsmith;
    their clothing is blue and purple;
    they are all the product of skilled workers.(D)
10 But the Lord is the true God;
    he is the living God and the everlasting King.
At his wrath the earth quakes,
    and the nations cannot endure his indignation.[b](E)
