These designers leave behind something fake and disgraceful for those who come after them.
how then can the things that are made by them be gods? They have left only lies and reproach for those who come after.

They have left only lies and reproach for those who come after.
Soothly they left false things, and shame (or reproof) to men to coming afterward. [Forsooth they left false things, and shame to men to coming after.]
