Habakkuk 2:18-20 What hath a carved image, profited, though the fashioner thereof, carved it? a molten image, and a teacher of falsehood,––though the fashioner of his fashioned thing trusted therein? that men should make Dumb Nonentities!

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ What hath a carved image, profited, though the fashioner thereof, carved it? a molten image, and a teacher of falsehood,––though the fashioner of his fashioned thing trusted therein? that men should make Dumb Nonentities! ¹⁹ Alas! for him who saith to wood, Awake, bestir thee! to a silent stone, he, shall teach! Though he is overlaid with gold and silver, yet, no spirit whatsoever, is in him! ²⁰ Howbeit, Yahweh, is in his holy temple,––Hush before him, all the earth.
