OET (OET-RV) On the contrary, you’ve proudly promoted yourself as being greater than the master of the heavens. You brought the temple cups in here and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. You praised the gods made from silver and gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which can’t see, or hear, or know anything, yet you haven’t honoured the god who decides your future and every breath that you take.

OET-LV And_against the _master _of the_heavens you _have _lifted _yourself _up and_DOM_the_vessels of house _of_his they _have _brought before_you[fn] and_you[fn] and_nobles _of_your[fn][fn] wives _of_your and_concubines _of_your (the)_wine are_drinking with_them and_DOM_the_gods _of (the)_silver and_(the)_gold (the)_bronze (the)_iron (the)_wood and_(the)_stone who not are_seeing and_not are_hearing and_not are_knowing you _have _praised and_DOM_the_god who breath _of_your is_in_hand _of_his and_all ways _of_your to_him/it not you _have _glorified.

ULT But you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of the heavens. And the vessels of his house have been brought before you, and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines have been drinking wine from them, and the gods of silver and gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which are not seeing and are not hearing and are not knowing, you have praised, but the God who, your breath, is in his hand and all of your ways, are to him, you have not honored.

UST Instead, you have considered yourself to be greater than God, who reigns in heaven. You have commanded your servants to bring you the cups from his temple in Jerusalem. You, your officials, your wives, and your concubines have been drinking from those cups. You have been making toasts in honor of your own gold. silver, bronze. iron, wood, and stone idols. Those idols represent gods that are not real. They cannot see, hear, or know anything! You have not honored the God who keeps you alive and who controls everything that happens to you.

BSB & MSB Instead, you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven. The vessels from His house were brought to you, and as you drank wine from them with your nobles, wives, and concubines, you praised [your] gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or understand. But you have failed to glorify the God who holds in His hand your very breath and all your ways.

You brought before you the vessels from his temple, and you and your nobles, together with your wives and concubines, drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone – gods that cannot see or hear or comprehend! But you have not glorified the God who has in his control your very breath and all your ways!

FBV You have arrogantly defied the Lord of heaven and you had the cups and bowls of his Temple brought to you.

But you have not honored God who holds in his hand your very breath and everything you do.

T4T You have considered yourself to be greater than God, the Lord of heaven.
