• 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!
  They cannot speak,
  and they need to be carried because they cannot walk.
  Do not be afraid of such gods,
  for they can neither harm you nor do you any good.
