13. For more than anyone else he knows that he is sinning,when out of earthen stuff he creates fragile vessels and idols alike.
14. But most stupid of all and worse than senseless in mind,are the enemies of your people who enslaved them.
15. For they esteemed all the idols of the nations as gods,which cannot use their eyes to see,nor nostrils to breathe the air,Nor ears to hear,nor fingers on their hands for feeling;even their feet are useless to walk with.
16. For it was a mere human being who made them;one living on borrowed breath who fashioned them.For no one is able to fashion a god like himself;
17. he is mortal, and what he makes with lawless hands is dead.For he is better than the things he worships;he at least lives, but never his idols.
18. Besides, they worship the most loathsome beasts—as regards stupidity, these are worse than the rest,
19. For beasts are neither good-looking nor desirable;they have escaped both the approval of God and his blessing.
