17 Every man is ignorant by His knowledge;
    every founder is humiliated by the graven image,
for his molded image is falsehood,
    and there is no breath in them.
18 They are vanity, the work of errors;
    in the time of their punishment they will perish.
19 The portion of Jacob is not like them,
    for He is the former of all things,
and Israel is the rod of His inheritance.
    The Lord of Hosts is His name.

17 (A)Everyone is dull-hearted, without knowledge;
Every metalsmith is put to shame by the carved image;
(B)For his molded image is falsehood,
And there is no breath in them.
18 They are futile, a work of errors;
In the time of their punishment they shall perish.
19 The Portion of Jacob is not like them,
For He is the Maker of all things;
And Israel is the tribe of His inheritance.
The Lord of hosts is His name.
