10:11 （你們要對他們如此說：不是那創造天地的神，必從地上從天下被除滅！）
10:12 耶和華用能力創造大地，用智慧建立世界，用聰明鋪張穹蒼。
10:13 他一發聲，空中便有多水激動；他使雲霧從地極上騰；他造電隨雨而閃，從他府庫中帶出風來。
10:14 各人都成了畜類，毫無知識；各銀匠都因他雕刻的偶像羞愧。他所鑄的偶像本是虛假的，其中並無氣息，
10:15 都是虛無的，是迷惑人的工作；到追討的時候必被除滅。
10:16 雅各的分不像這些，因他是造作萬有的主。以色列也是他產業的支派，萬軍之耶和華是他的名。
11 Thus shall you say to them: "The
gods who did not make the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth and
from under the heavens."
12 It is he who made the earth by his
power,
who
established the world by his wisdom,
and by his understanding stretched out the
heavens.
13 When he utters his voice, there is a
tumult of waters in the heavens,
and
he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth.
He
makes lightning for the rain,
and
he brings forth the wind from his storehouses.
14 Every man is stupid and without
knowledge;
every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols,
for his images are false,
and
there is no breath in them.
15 They are worthless, a work of delusion;
at the time of their punishment they shall
perish.
16 Not like these is he who is the portion
of Jacob,
for he is the one who formed all things,
and
Israel is the tribe of his inheritance;
the
Lord of hosts is his name.

先知在此宣告上帝與偶像的不同，是要讓我們認清楚真正能夠幫助與拯救人的是上帝，有像只不過是虛無的，是比人更沒有能力的東西！若是有智慧的人，應該是捨棄偶像，來信靠上帝！
但是，最可怕的是，人心都被罪惡所蒙蔽，情願去尋求假神，因為人都盼望能夠心想事成，滿足自己的需求，不願意面對真實的狀況，寧可以假像來陶醉自己，以至於面對真實的上帝時會受不了！也因此，人不僅製造偶像，更是崇拜偶像！使自己沉浸在騙局之中，永遠不面對真相！
然而，人要真正得到拯救，不再滅亡進入永生，必須敢受真神的光照，認識自己真正的景況，然後透過耶穌基督的代贖，承擔我們一切的刑罰，使我們真正從罪中出來，我們才能朝見上帝的面來敬拜祂，與祂建立恆久的關係，如此我們才可以完全，也才有能力為祂的見證人！因為我們的生命，真正有上帝的救贖在其中，不是我們的想像！
