“Should he argue ^H3198 with a word ^H1697 that cannot ^H3808 be used ^H5532,

Or with speech ^H4405 which is not profitable ^H3276?

‘[fn]Who ^H4100 is [fn]the Almighty ^H7706, that we should serve ^H5647 Him,

And what ^H4100 would we profit ^H3276 if ^H3588 we entreat ^H6293 Him?’

“They break ^H5420 up ^H5420 my path ^H5410;

They profit ^H3276 [fn]from my destruction ^H1942;

They have no ^H3808 helper ^H5826.

“For you say ^H559, ‘What ^H4100 use ^H5532 will it be ^H5532 to [fn]You?

What ^H4100 profit ^H3276 will I have, more ^H4480 than ^H4480 if I had sinned ^H2403?’

Treasures ^H214 gained by wickedness ^H7562 do not profit ^H3276,

Wealth ^H1952 will not profit ^H3276 in the day ^H3117 of wrath ^H5678,

“Everyone ^H3605 will be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 because ^H5921 of a people ^H5971 who cannot ^H3808 profit ^H3276 them,

Who are not for help ^H5828 or profit ^H3276, but for shame ^H1322 and also ^H1571 for reproach ^H2781.”

Those who form ^H3335 [fn]a graven ^H6459 image ^H6459 are all ^H3605 of them [fn]futile ^H8414, and their desirable ^H2530 things ^H2530 are of no ^H1077 profit ^H3276; even their own witnesses ^H5707 fail ^H1077 to see ^H7200 or know ^H3045, so ^H4616 that they will be put ^H954 to ^H954 shame ^H954.

“Stand ^H5975 fast now ^H4994 in your spells ^H2267

And in your many ^H7230 sorceries ^H3785

With which ^H834 you have labored ^H3021 from your youth ^H5271;

Perhaps ^H194 you will be ^H3201 able ^H3201 to profit ^H3276;

Perhaps ^H194 you may cause ^H6206 trembling ^H6206.

Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068, your Redeemer ^H1350, the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 of Israel ^H3478,

“I am Yahweh ^H3068 your God ^H430, who teaches ^H3925 you to profit ^H3276,

Who leads ^H1869 you in the way ^H1870 you should go ^H1980.

“I will declare ^H5046 your righteousness ^H6666 and your deeds ^H4639,

But they will not profit ^H3276 you.

“The priests ^H3548 did not say ^H559, ‘Where ^H346 is Yahweh ^H3068?’

And those who handle ^H8610 the law ^H8451 did not know ^H3045 Me;

The [fn]shepherds ^H7462 also transgressed ^H6586 against Me,

And the prophets ^H5030 prophesied ^H5012 by Baal ^H1168

And walked ^H1980 after ^H310 things that did not profit ^H3276.

“Has a nation ^H1471 changed ^H4171 gods ^H430

Though they were not gods ^H430?

But My people ^H5971 have changed ^H4171 their glory ^H3519

For that which does not profit ^H3276.

“Behold ^H2009, you are trusting ^H982 in lying ^H8267 words ^H1697 to no ^H1115 avail ^H3276.

“They have sown ^H2232 wheat ^H2406 and have reaped ^H7114 thorns ^H6975;

They have strained ^H2470 themselves [fn]to no ^H3808 profit ^H3276.

But be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 of your produce ^H8393

Because ^H4480 of the burning ^H2740 anger ^H639 of Yahweh ^H3068.”

O Yahweh ^H3068, my strength ^H5797 and my strong ^H4581 defense ^H4581,

And my refuge ^H4498 in the day ^H3117 of distress ^H6869,

To You the nations ^H1471 will come ^H935

From the ends ^H657 of the earth ^H776 and say ^H559,

“Our fathers ^H1 have inherited ^H5157 nothing ^H389 but lies ^H8267,

Futility ^H1892 and [fn]things of no ^H369 profit ^H3276.”

“What ^H4100 profit ^H3276 is the graven ^H6459 image ^H6459 when ^H3588 its maker ^H3335 has engraved ^H6458 it,

Or a molten ^H4541 image ^H4541, a teacher ^H3384 of [fn]lies ^H8267?

For its maker ^H3335 trusts ^H982 in his own making ^H3336

When he fashions ^H6213 speechless ^H483 idols ^H457.
