Habakkuk 2:18-20

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁸ What use is an idol
    once its maker has shaped it—
    a cast image, a teacher of lies?
For its maker trusts in what has been made,
    though the product is only an idol that cannot speak!
¹⁹ Alas for you who say to the wood, ‘Wake up!’
    to silent stone, ‘Rouse yourself!’
    Can it teach?
See, it is plated with gold and silver,
    and there is no breath in it at all.

²⁰ But the Lord is in his holy temple;
    let all the earth keep silence before him!
