Habakkuk 2:17-19

Names of God Bible

¹⁷The violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,
    and the destruction done to the animals will terrify you
        because of the slaughter and violence done
            to lands, cities, and all their inhabitants.

¹⁸“What benefit is there in a carved idol
    when its maker has carved it?
    What benefit is there in a molded statue, a teacher of lies,
        when its maker has molded it?
    The one who formed it trusts himself
        to make worthless idols that cannot speak.
¹⁹‘How horrible it will be for the one
    who says to a piece of wood, “Wake up!”
        and to a stone that cannot talk, “Get up!” ’
    Can that thing teach anyone?
        Just look at it!
            It’s covered with gold and silver,
                but there’s absolutely no life in it.”
