• For the customs of the peoples are vanity;
  for one cuts a tree out of the forest,
  the work of the hands of the workman with the ax.

  They fasten it with nails and with hammers,
  so that it can’t move.
  They are like a palm tree, of turned work,
  and don’t speak.
  They must be carried,
  because they can’t move.
  Don’t be afraid of them;
  for they can’t do evil,
  neither is it in them to do good.
