# General Information:
Yahweh continues speaking to the unfaithful people of Israel.
# let your collection of idols rescue you
Yahweh is mocking the people and their idols. He tells the idols to save the people though he knows they cannot. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-irony]])
# the wind will carry them all away, a breath will carry them all away
This is saying the same thing in two ways to emphasize that idols are helpless and worthless. Alternate translation: "the wind, or even a breath, will blow them away" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]])
# holy mountain
The "holy mountain" is Mount Zion, in Jerusalem. See how you translated this in [Isaiah 11:9](../11/09.md).
