蓋異邦人之禮儀虛偽、所敬者乃木、伐於林中、工師以斧製之、以金銀飾之、以釘以鎚堅之、使不搖動、

舉而舁之於肩、置於定處、立而不離其所、呼籲之而不應、亦不能救人於難、

次日、亞實突人夙興、見大袞面仆於地、在主之匱前、遂以大袞復立於其所、又次日夙興、見大袞仍面仆於地、在主之匱前、且大袞之首與二手、斷於門閾之上、惟遺大袞殘體而已、

木工勉金工、以鎚治光者勉擊碪者、亦必言、莫若釬為善、以釘釘堅、使不搖撼、

竟向天上之主自高、使人將其殿之器皿、取至爾前、爾與爾大臣及妃嬪、以之飲酒、讚美金銀銅鐵木石所造諸神、彼不見不聞不知、惟掌爾生氣生氣或作呼吸及爾命運爾命運原文作爾諸道塗之天主、爾反不頌揚之、

其地偶像徧立、崇拜己手所製、己指所作、賤者低、貴者降、主毋赦之、
