For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.

Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good. | Their ways are futile and foolish. They cut down a tree, and a craftsman carves an idol. They decorate it with gold and silver and then fasten it securely with hammer and nails so it won’t fall over. Their gods are like helpless scarecrows in a cucumber field!

That prophet has spoken without my authority and need not be feared. |
