17 The violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,as will the destruction of the beasts that terrified them, for the blood of man and violence to the earth,to cities and all who dwell in them.
18 “What profit is an idolwhen its maker has shaped it,a metal image, a teacher of lies?For its maker trusts in his own creationwhen he makes speechless idols!
19 Woe to him who says to a wooden thing, Awake;to a silent stone, Arise!Can this teach?Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,and there is no breath at all in it.
20 But the Lord is in his holy temple; let all the earth keep silence before him.”
