New King James Version
5 They are upright, like a palm tree,
And (A)they cannot speak;
They must be (B)carried,
Because they cannot go by themselves.
Do not be afraid of them,
For (C)they cannot do evil,
Nor can they do any good.”

5 Their idols[a] are like scarecrows in a cucumber field,
and (A)they cannot speak;
(B)they have to be carried,
for they cannot walk.
Do not be afraid of them,
(C)for they cannot do evil,
neither is it in them to do good.”
