12 Now I will speak against the things that you do.
You think that they are good and right,
    but those things will not help you.
13 Shout for help, if you like.
    See if your group of idols can help you!
The wind will blow them all away.
    Even a breath will carry them away.
But if people trust me to help them,
    this land will belong to them.
They will worship me on my holy mountain.’[a]

The Lord promises to help his people

14 The Lord says,

‘Build a road! Make it ready for my people to travel on!
Remove everything that would cause them to fall.’
