Habakkuk 2:18-19

18“What 1benefit is a carved image when its maker has carved it, Or a cast metal image, a 2teacher of falsehood? For its maker 3trusts in his own handiwork When he fashions speechless idols.19Woe to him who 4says to a piece of wood, ‘5Awake!’ To a mute stone, ‘Arise!’ That is your teacher? Behold, it is overlaid with 6gold and silver, Yet there is 7no breath at all inside it.
