Why are you mocking us?

Leave us be! Leave! Leave!

I'm; the servant of the Most High!

Faded.

Their nighttime gods have faded.

- During the day, they worship

the sun, brighter than the moon.

Leave! Leave!

We worship what we please.

Now that the sun has clone down.

It is not worshiped at night.

Worship Jehovah the true God

who is Eternal Light!

To be God is to be immortal

and nothing in this creation is.

Fie Lord is our heavenly father.

Worship Him with all your heart.

- What's he saying?

- What new thing is that?

I must invent a new god!

Urgently!

My people have

gone astray, Lord!

Satan has taken hold of their

leader to keep them blind!

Listen!

I'm sacrificing my son to the gods

To soothe their anger for my son

broke one of the house idols.

He was playing when his leg

brushed against the idol and it broke.

What kind of god is that

who can't defend himself?

That even a child can break him.

I wonder if my new god is

one of the broken halves

Or is my child my new god?

Lord, hear me out!

I know without a doubt that

you decide the fate of all.

You rule! You decide!

You're everything!

You promised me

wonderful things!

Why don't you do one

little thing for them?

Open their eyes

to see You, O Lord!

Do you hear me?

Do you hear me?

He didn't hear you, Abram!

But I can help you!

Help me Lord not to hear him!

Abram, it's I, the Lord.

Soon, you'll marry Sarai.

Then, you'll get out of your

country, from your family.

I'll lead you to a new land where

I will begin a new thing with you.

I will bless you

and make you a great nation.

And in you all the families of

the earth will be blessed.

Because Abram. you are

my chosen vessel.

Damn you, Harpak!

I will cause Nimrod's sword

to fall on your head for this'!

Men!

I am the messenger of the one

true God to you Babylonians.

Abram, no.

What are you doing?

Have you gone mad?

Do you want me to beg?

I'm begging. Please.

I'm begging. 'll even cry.

But know this. prophet.

My patience is running: thin.

The feast of the gods is in 3 days.

A day I've been eagerly waiting for.

The feast of the gods is in 3 days.

A day I've been eagerly waiting for.

Not only for business,

but or tradition.

Please, don't ruin it.

Azar!

Those stones you call gods

do they hear you when

you call out to them?

Stones do not hear.

And octahedron can they help.

Our fathers worshipped them.

And we worship them too, even

though you call them useless.

I worship the Lord who created me

and guides me out of His kindness.

The same God who generously

provides food when I hunger.

Water when I thirst.

And healing when I hurt.

Aid when I die, he'll give me

life again in the afterlife.

As for forgiveness, he cleanses

my unrighteousness.

All because He's kind

and forgiving.

Leave me alone.

Leave Babel if you can.

Leave.

Harpak has betrayed the king.

That's a lie!

That's a lie!

That's a lie!

This man is nothing

but a deceitful liar.

He's conspiring against you.

Expel him once more.

He's conspiring against you.

Expel him once more.

Take away this traitor!

Not until I reveal

the sordid details of how you

betrayed the great monarch.

That dreadful day when I saw

the two of you in the forest.

I swear by the king I'll kill you.

Lock him up!

Oh great Nimrod,

kill me if you must

at least, let me tell you

what Harpak did to you.

Let go of him!

He's crazy.

He's after revenge. Plus he wants

to smear your reputation.

All because you expelled him

and chose Azar over him.

On ghat dreadful day, your Maiesty.

I was in the forest

when I saw Harpak and your wife

on lush bedding

betraying her vows

and your majesty.

Your wife betrayed you, Majesty

because you killed her father.

She has been using Harpak's

influence to topple your reign.

She's guilty, Nimrod.

Don't spare them!

Don't spare them, Nimrod!

Alright, Obeis! I heard you.

Go!

I said go!

I won't play your game

anymore.

It's over! It's over!

No, it's not.

You will finish it.

my dear Harpak.

Obeis revealed our secret.

If you don't keep your promise,

I'll seduce Nimrod into killing you.

Iii

My Sword!

Get lost!

Was ell this to avenue

your father and your tribe?

Here's my sword!

Go ahead!

Kill me!

Go ahead, kill me!

No, Great Nimrod!

Don't kill me!

I can still be useful to you

and Babel.

You have always been prudent

because of my advice.

Killing me will serve no purpose

except destabilizing your rule.

Please, don't kill me!

Please don't!

Enough! I forgive you!

And only because I can

better use you now as my vizier.

Thank you, Monarch!

Get up!

Get up!

If I were you, I'd ged rid of Obeis!

Are you with us?

Today's the feast.

Sarai will be there.

I'm not feeling well.

You go, Lot.

But...

Don't worry.

There's a reason for it.

Go on now!

Do not be afraid. Abram.

I am the Protector who protects

and you Abram are my servant.

I am the one and only true God

who promises that I will

make nations of you it

and kings shall come from you.

You're the great god in Babel

after Nimrod.

Who are you?

Me? Destroyer of false gods!

Your voice

isn't frightening, though.

I feel strange in your presence.

I can't see well.

my eyesight is dim.

Why aren't you at the feast

with the others?

If you've brought offerings,

please leave them and go.

What? Not hungry?

Prepare to defend yourselves!

What makes you think

I've broken the idols?

There was only one person who

didn't attend the feast with us.

That's you!

Abram!

The favorite protege of

Azar, the idol-maker.

And there were witnesses. too.

This axe

belongs to Abram!

Give me the axe!

Whoever used this axe

should be amputated.

Even if he's my student

or even my own family.

I heard from Azar that the axe was

found on the great idol's shoulder.

Don't you think the great idol

could have done it?

Ask him and he may tell you

he; didn't like the lesser gods.

Everyone knows that these idols

never talk and never move.

You're right.

You worship

gods who can't talk and move.

So, how can they move on your

behalf and answer your prayers?

And yet you forgot the

One True God

Jehovah whose Dower can

deliver blessings and cursings.

Fire on you and

what you worship.

So, it's true.

You Abram are a prophet.

I am.

Enough!

Harpak.

Let it be known in all the kingdom

the punishment that befits a heretic.

Spare no firewood and let

the flames reach the heavens

and burn this man.

Alive.

Let it be done.

It will be done, my king.

All Babylonians must be present

at the burning ceremony.

everybody!

Obeis, you win.

You won this battle.

I'll sell my workshop.

You have no rival anymore.

They're going to burn

my dear Abram.

My intercession is

of no avail anymore.

Nimrod regards me

with disfavour.

Now it's your turn to do

as you wish.

Yes, as you wish.

Abram!

Where's your saviour God

to save you from this calamity?

lam Abram.

Servant of the one

and true God.

Instead of God, you worship
