Habakkuk 2:18-20
New Living Translation
18 “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!
19 What sorrow awaits you who say to wooden idols,
‘Wake up and save us!’
To speechless stone images you say,
‘Rise up and teach us!’
Can an idol tell you what to do?
They may be overlaid with gold and silver,
but they are lifeless inside.
20 But the Lord is in his holy Temple.
Let all the earth be silent before him.”
Habakkuk 2:18-20
New International Version
18 “Of what value(A) is an idol(B) carved by a craftsman?
Or an image(C) that teaches lies?
For the one who makes it trusts in his own creation;
he makes idols that cannot speak.(D)
19 Woe to him who says to wood, ‘Come to life!’
Or to lifeless stone, ‘Wake up!’(E)
Can it give guidance?
It is covered with gold and silver;(F)
there is no breath in it.”(G)
Jeremiah 2:26-27
New Living Translation
26 “Israel is like a thief
who feels shame only when he gets caught.
They, their kings, officials, priests, and prophets—
all are alike in this.
27 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!’
Jeremiah 2:26-27
New International Version
26 “As a thief is disgraced(A) when he is caught,
so the people of Israel are disgraced—
they, their kings and their officials,
their priests(B) and their prophets.(C)
27 They say to wood,(D) ‘You are my father,’
and to stone,(E) ‘You gave me birth.’
They have turned their backs(F) to me
and not their faces;(G)
yet when they are in trouble,(H) they say,
‘Come and save(I) us!’
Isaiah 44:17
New Living Translation
17 Then he takes what’s left
and makes his god: a carved idol!
He falls down in front of it,
worshiping and praying to it.
“Rescue me!” he says.
“You are my god!”
Isaiah 44:17
New International Version
