Habakkuk 2:19

Doom On The Unrighteous

¹⁸
“What profit is the carved image when its maker has formed it?
It is only a cast image, and a teacher of lies.
For its maker trusts in his own creation [as his god]
When he makes speechless idols.
¹⁹ 
“Woe (judgment is coming) to him who says to the wooden image, ‘Awake!’
And to the speechless stone, ‘Arise!’
And that is your teacher?
Look, it is overlaid with gold and silver,
And there is no breath at all inside it.
²⁰
“But the Lord is in His holy temple.
Let all the earth hush and be silent before Him.”
