- Mine idol:
- "I¹ [am] the LORD:ª that¹ [is] my name:ª and my gloryª will I not¹ giveª° to another,ª neither my praiseª to graven images.ª ... Behold,¹ the former thingsª are come to pass,ª° and new thingsª do I¹ declare:ª° before¹ they spring forthª° I tellª° you of them." {Isa 42:8-9} + "But¹ we will certainly²° doª°¹ whatsoever¹¹ thingª goeth forthª° out of our own mouth,ª¹ to burn incenseª° unto the queenª of heaven,ª and to pour outª° drink offeringsª unto her, as¹ we have done,ª° we,¹ and our fathers,ª our kings,ª and our princes,ª in the citiesª of Judah,ª and in the streetsª of Jerusalem:ª for [then] had we plentyª° of victuals,ª and were¹ well,ª and sawª° no¹ evil.ª ... But since¹¹ we left offª° to burn incenseª° to the queenª of heaven,ª and to pour outª° drink offeringsª unto her, we have wantedª° all¹ [things], and have been consumedª° by the swordª and by the famine.ª" {Jer 44:17-18}
