18 “What profit is the graven image when its maker has engraved it,
Or a molten image, a teacher of lies?
For its maker trusts in his own making
When he fashions speechless idols.
19 Woe to him who says to a piece of wood, ‘Awake!’
To a mute stone, ‘Arise!’
And that is your teacher?
Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,
And there is no breath at all inside it.
