18 (A)To whom can God be compared?
    How can you describe what he is like?
19 He is not like an idol that workers make,
    that metalworkers cover with gold
    and set in a base of silver.
20 (B)Anyone who cannot afford silver or gold[a]
    chooses wood that will not rot.
He finds a skillful worker
    to make an image that won't fall down.
