46 Even their makers do not live long lives, so how are they able to create gods?
47 These people leave nothing but deceit and disgrace as an inheritance for future generations.
48 When wars and disturbances come, the priests plan where they can go into hiding with their gods.
49 These idols are helpless in the face of wars and disturbances. Why can't people realize that these idols are not gods?
50 These idols are nothing more than wood covered with silver and gold; one day it will be clear that they are really not gods at all.
51 All nations and kings will realize that idols are nothing more than the work of human hands. They do not have the power of a god,
52 and anyone should know that they are not really gods.
