The Lord and the Idols

10 ·Family [L House] of Israel, ·listen to what [L hear the word that] the Lord says to you. This is what he says:

“Don’t ·live like the people from [L learn the way/path of] other nations,
    and don’t be ·afraid of [terrified by] special signs in the ·sky [heavens; C astrology],
    even though the other nations are ·afraid [terrified] of them.
The ·customs [statutes; ordinances; requirements] of other people are ·worth nothing [meaningless; useless; L a breath].
    ·Their idols are just wood cut from the forest [L A tree from the forest is cut down],
    shaped by a ·worker [craftsman] with his ·chisel [or ax; or adze; or blade].
