17 “Everyone is senseless and without knowledge;
    every goldsmith is shamed by his idols.
The images he makes are a fraud;(A)
    they have no breath in them.
18 They are worthless,(B) the objects of mockery;
    when their judgment comes, they will perish.
19 He who is the Portion(C) of Jacob is not like these,
    for he is the Maker of all things,
including the people of his inheritance(D)
    the Lord Almighty is his name.

17 “Every man has become brutish without knowledge.
    Every goldsmith is disappointed by his image;
for his molten image is falsehood,
    and there is no breath in them.
18 They are vanity,
    a work of delusion.
    In the time of their visitation, they will perish.
19 The portion of Jacob is not like these,
    for he is the former of all things;
    including the tribe of his inheritance:
    Yahweh of Armies is his name.
