Habakkuk 2:18-20 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

18. "What profit is the idol when its maker has carved it, Or an image, a teacher of falsehood? For its maker trusts in his own handiwork When he fashions speechless idols.

19. "Woe to him who says to a piece of wood, 'Awake!' To a mute stone, 'Arise!' And that is your teacher? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, And there is no breath at all inside it.

20. "But the Lord is in His holy temple. Let all the earth be silent before Him."
