¹⁴ Everyone is senseless and without knowledge;
    every goldsmith is shamed^(A) by his idols.
The images he makes are a fraud;^(B)
    they have no breath in them.

⁷ The metalworker^(A) encourages the goldsmith,^(B)
    and the one who smooths with the hammer
    spurs on the one who strikes the anvil.
One says of the welding, “It is good.”
    The other nails down the idol so it will not topple.^(C)
