1 Chronicles 16:26 Cross References - ECB

²⁶ for all the elohim of the people are idols; and Yah Veh worked the heavens:

⁴ Neither turn your face to idols, nor work to yourselves molten elohim: I - Yah Veh your Elohim.

²⁵ At your face you founded the earth; and the heavens are the work of your hands:

⁴ Their idols are silver and gold the work of human hands: ⁵ mouths have they, but they word not; eyes have they, but they see not; ⁶ ears have they, but they hear not; nostrils have they, but they scent not; ⁷ hands have they, but they touch not; feet have they, but they walk not; they mutter not through their throat. ⁸ They who work them are like them; thus is every one who confides in them.

²⁶ Lift your eyes on high, and see who created these; who brings out their host by number: - calls them all by names by the greatness of his strength - for he is strong in force; no man lacks.

⁵ Thus says El Yah Veh, who created the heavens and spread them; who expanded the earth and its offspring; who gave breath to the people thereon, and spirit to them who walk therein:

⁹ They who form a sculptile all of them are a waste; and their desires benefit not: and they are their own witnesses; they neither see, nor know to shame. ¹⁰ Who ever formed an el or poured a sculptile that is not beneficial? ¹¹ Behold, all his companions shame: and the engravers are of humanity: they all gather; together they stand: they fear; together they shame. ¹² The engraver of iron works with the ax in the coals and forms with hammers and makes with the force of his arms: yes, he famishes and his force is not: he drinks no water and wearies. ¹³ The engraver of timber spreads his line; he surveys with a stylus; he works with planes: and he surveys with the compass and works after the pattern of a man according to the adornment of humanity; that it settle in the house: ¹⁴ he cuts down cedars; and takes the cypress and the oak which he strengthens for himself among the trees of the forest: he plants an ash, and the downpour nourishes: ¹⁵ and it becomes for humanity to burn: for he takes and heats; yes, he kindles and bakes bread: yes, he works an el and prostrates; he makes a sculptile, and prostrates thereto: ¹⁶ he burns half in the fire; with half he eats flesh; he roasts a roast, and satiates: yes, he heats, and says, Aha, I heat up; I see the flame: ¹⁷ and of what survives, he works an el - his sculptile: he prostrates thereto - prostrates and prays thereto, and says, Rescue me; for you are my el. ¹⁸ They neither know nor discern: for he daubs their eyes from seeing, and their hearts from comprehending: ¹⁹ and no one turns to his heart; there is neither knowledge nor discernment to say, I burn half in the fire; yes, also I bake bread on the coals; I roast flesh and eat: and I work the remnant an abhorrence: I prostrate to the product of a tree. ²⁰ He grazes on ashes: a mocked heart perverts him that he neither rescues his soul, nor says, Is there not a falsehood in my right?

²⁴ Thus says Yah Veh your redeemer - he who formed you from the belly, I - Yah Veh who worked all; who alone spread the heavens; who expanded the earth by myself:

¹⁰ And Yah Veh is the Elohim of truth; he is the living Elohim and eternal sovereign: the earth quakes at his rage and the goyim contain not his rage. ¹¹ Thus you say to them, The elah who made not the heavens and the earth destructs from the earth and from under these heavens. ¹² He worked the earth by his force; he established the world by his wisdom; and spread the heavens by his discernment. ¹³ He gives his voice; there is a multitude of waters in the heavens: and he ascends the vapours from the ends of the earth: he works lightnings with rain and brings forth the wind from his treasures. ¹⁴ All humanity is brutish in knowledge: every refiner is shamed by the sculptile: for his libation is falsehood and there is no spirit in them:

²⁶ moreover you observe and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but throughout nearly all Asia, this Paulos convinces and removes a vast multitude; wording that no elohim becomes through hands:

⁴ So, concerning the eating of idol sacrifices, we know that an idol is naught in the cosmos and that there is no other Elohim except one.

⁷ wording in a mega voice, Awe Elohim and give him glory; because the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him who made the heavens and earth and the sea and the fountains of waters.
