People who worship idols are stupid and foolish. The things they worship are made of wood!

他们尽都是畜类，是愚昧的。偶像的训诲算什么呢？偶像不过是木头。

他们如同畜牲，尽都愚昧。偶像的训诲算什么呢？偶像不过是木头，

他们如同畜牲，尽都愚昧。偶像的训诲算什么呢？偶像不过是木头，

他们都愚昧无知，毫无用处的木制偶像能教导他们什么呢？

他们全是顽梗愚昧，他们所领受的教导是来自那些虚无、木做的偶像。

他們盡都是畜類，是愚昧的。偶像的訓誨算甚麼呢？偶像不過是木頭。

他們如同畜牲，盡都愚昧。偶像的訓誨算甚麼呢？偶像不過是木頭，

他們如同畜牲，盡都愚昧。偶像的訓誨算甚麼呢？偶像不過是木頭，

他們都愚昧無知，毫無用處的木製偶像能教導他們什麼呢？

他們全是頑梗愚昧，他們所領受的教導是來自那些虛無、木做的偶像。

拜偶像的人一概是畜類、是愚頑，是虛無神所指教的：那神不過是木頭，

彼皆冥頑無知、偶像之道、惟木而已、

崇拜偶像、愚蠢孰甚、欲知其妄、以木為證。

彼皆愚昧、同為無識、拜偶像之典章、盡屬虛妄、所拜者惟木偶、

They are all senseless and foolish; they are taught by worthless wooden idols.

All of them are foolish. They don’t have any sense. They think they are taught by worthless wooden gods.

They are both stupid and foolish; the instruction of idols is but wood!

They are both stupid and foolish, instructed by worthless idols made of wood!

But they are altogether stupid and foolish; The instruction from idols is nothing but wood!

But they are altogether dull-hearted and foolish; A wooden idol is a worthless doctrine.

But they are together brutish and foolish: the instruction of idols! it is but a stock.

They are both stupid and foolish, instructed by worthless idols made of wood!

But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock[ is] a doctrine of vanities.

The people of those nations are both stupid and foolish. Instruction from a wooden idol is worthless!

But they are together brutish and foolish, instructed by idols! It is just wood.

The whole human race is foolish and has no knowledge! The craftsmen are disgraced by the idols they make, for their carefully shaped works are a fraud. These idols have no breath or power.

“ What good is an idol carved by man, or a cast image that deceives you? How foolish to trust in your own creation— a god that can’t even talk!

And those who make idols are just like them, as are all who trust in them.

And those who make idols are just like them, as are all who trust in them.

See, they are all foolish, worthless things. All your idols are as empty as the wind.

Household gods give worthless advice, fortune tellers predict only lies, and interpreters of dreams pronounce falsehoods that give no comfort. So my people are wandering like lost sheep; they are attacked because they have no shepherd.

Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn’t worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused.Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools.

“ My people are foolish and do not know me,” says the Lord.“ They are stupid children who have no understanding. They are clever enough at doing wrong, but they have no idea how to do right!”

They ask a piece of wood for advice! They think a stick can tell them the future! Longing after idols has made them foolish. They have played the prostitute, serving other gods and deserting their God.

To an image carved from a piece of wood they say,‘ You are my father.’ To an idol chiseled from a block of stone they say,‘ You are my mother.’ They turn their backs on me, but in times of trouble they cry out to me,‘ Come and save us!’

The whole human race is foolish and has no knowledge! The craftsmen are disgraced by the idols they make, for their carefully shaped works are a fraud. These idols have no breath or power.Idols are worthless; they are ridiculous lies! On the day of reckoning they will all be destroyed.

The person who made the idol never stops to reflect,“ Why, it’s just a block of wood! I burned half of it for heat and used it to bake my bread and roast my meat. How can the rest of it be a god? Should I bow down to worship a piece of wood?”
