Habakkuk 2:18-20

¹⁸What use is an idol,

that a craftsman should carve it —

or an image,

a teacher of lies?

For its maker trusts in his own creation;

he makes idols that cannot speak.

¹⁹Woe to him who says to wood, ‘Awake!’

or to silent stone, ‘Arise!’

Can it give guidance?

Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,

yet there is no breath in it at all.”

²⁰But the LORD is in His holy temple;

let all the earth be silent before Him.
