The idols of the nations are of silver and gold, made by human hands.

外邦的偶像是金的，银的，是人手所造的；

外邦的偶像是金的，是银的，是人手所造的，

外邦的偶像是金的，是银的，是人手所造的，

外族人的神像是人用金银造的。

異邦之偶像、金銀而已、人手所雕作兮。

列國之偶像、或金或銀、為人手所造、

異邦之偶像。乃為金銀器。明明是死物。人工之所鑄。

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, made by human hands.

The statues of the nations’ gods are made out of silver and gold. They are made by human hands.

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of human hands.

The idols of the nations are merely things of silver and gold, shaped by human hands.

The idols of the nations are of silver and gold, made by human hands.

The idols of the nations are nothing but silver and gold, The work of human hands.

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men’s hands.

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men’s hands.

The idols of the heathen[ are] silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

The nations’ idols are made of silver and gold, they are man-made.

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

Their idols are silver and gold, made by human hands.They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see.They have ears but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell.They have hands but cannot feel, feet, but cannot walk. They cannot make a sound with their throats.Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them.

for the customs of the peoples are worthless. Someone cuts down a tree from the forest; it is worked by the hands of a craftsman with a chisel.He decorates it with silver and gold. It is fastened with hammer and nails, so it won’t totter.Like scarecrows in a cucumber patch, their idols cannot speak. They must be carried because they cannot walk. Do not fear them for they can do no harm— and they cannot do any good.Yahweh, there is no one like You. You are great; Your name is great in power.Who should not fear You, King of the nations? It is what You deserve. For among all the wise people of the nations and among all their kingdoms, there is no one like You.They are both stupid and foolish, instructed by worthless idols made of wood!Beaten silver is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz from the hands of a goldsmith, the work of a craftsman. Their clothing is blue and purple, all the work of skilled artisans.But Yahweh is the true God; He is the living God and eternal King. The earth quakes at His wrath, and the nations cannot endure His rage.You are to say this to them,“ The gods that did not make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under these heavens.”

They have thrown their gods into the fire, for they were not gods but made by human hands— wood and stone. So they have destroyed them.

What use is a carved idol after its craftsman carves it? It is only a cast image, a teacher of lies. For the one who crafts its shape trusts in it and makes idols that cannot speak.Woe to him who says to wood: Wake up! or to mute stone: Come alive! Can it teach? Look! It may be plated with gold and silver, yet there is no breath in it at all.

There you will worship man-made gods of wood and stone, which cannot see, hear, eat, or smell.

Those who pour out their bags of gold and weigh out silver on scales— they hire a goldsmith and he makes it into a god. Then they kneel and bow down to it.They lift it to their shoulder and bear it along; they set it in its place, and there it stands; it does not budge from its place. They cry out to it but it doesn’t answer; it saves no one from his trouble.

Being God’s offspring then, we shouldn’t think that the divine nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image fashioned by human art and imagination.

To an idol?— something that a smelter casts, and a metalworker plates with gold and makes silver welds for it?To one who shapes a pedestal, choosing wood that does not rot? He looks for a skilled craftsman to set up an idol that will not fall over.

All who make idols are nothing, and what they treasure does not profit. Their witnesses do not see or know anything, so they will be put to shame.Who makes a god or casts a metal image for no profit?Look, all its worshipers will be put to shame, and the craftsmen are humans. They all will assemble and stand; they all will be startled and put to shame.The ironworker labors over the coals, shapes the idol with hammers, and works it with his strong arm. Also he grows hungry and his strength fails; he doesn’t drink water and is faint.The woodworker stretches out a measuring line, he outlines it with a stylus; he shapes it with chisels and outlines it with a compass. He makes it according to a human likeness, like a beautiful person, to dwell in a temple.He cuts down cedars for his use, or he takes a cypress or an oak. He lets it grow strong among the trees of the forest. He plants a laurel, and the rain makes it grow.It serves as fuel for man. He takes some of it and warms himself; also he kindles a fire and bakes bread; he even makes it into a god and worships it; he makes an idol from it and bows down to it.He burns half of it in a fire, and he roasts meat on that half. He eats the roast and is satisfied. He warms himself and says,“ Ah! I am warm, I see the blaze.”He makes a god or his idol with the rest of it. He bows down to it and worships; He prays to it,“ Save me, for you are my god.”Such people do not comprehend and cannot understand, for He has shut their eyes so they cannot see, and their minds so they cannot understand.No one reflects, no one has the perception or insight to say,“ I burned half of it in the fire, I also baked bread on its coals, I roasted meat and ate. I will make something detestable with the rest of it, and I will bow down to a block of wood.”He feeds on ashes. His deceived mind has led him astray, and he cannot deliver himself, or say,“ Isn’t there a lie in my right hand?”
