Oops, my bad! It's been a while since I last played this, so I forgot that part. Anyway:
אֱלָהַיָּא, דִּי-שְׁמַיָּא וְאַרְקָא לָא עֲבַדוּ; יֵאבַדוּ מֵאַרְעָא וּמִן-תְּחוֹת שְׁמַיָּא, אֵלֶּה.
'The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.'

Correct, sammymcgoff. It's from the Hebrew Bible, Book of Jeremiah, verse 10:11. While most of the book is in Hebrew this one verse is in Aramaic, for some reason. There are speculations that this verse denouncing idolatry was added later, when Aramaic replaced Hebrew as the colloquial language of Judaea.
Anyway, your turn.
