Which idol ever foretold things,
Can predict what will happen,
Where witnesses of predictions,
Who can verify the truth?
We have been chosen to witness,
We are his servants chosen,
To know him and understand him,
He is Savior, no other.
Blacksmith stands at his forge to make,
A sharp tool, pounding, shaping,
With all his might gets weak, hungry,
Work makes him thirsty and faint,
Wood carver measures block of wood,
Draws pattern works with chisel,
Carves a human figure gives it,
Human beauty puts in shrine.
Cuts down cedars, selects cypress,
Plants pine in forest to be,
Nourished by rain uses part of wood,
Makes a fire warms himself,
Bakes his bread then he takes the rest,
Of the wood makes God to worship!
Makes idol bows front of it,
Burns part of tree to roast meat.
He burns part of the tree to keep warm,
He says, "Ah fire feels good,
Then he takes what's left makes idol,
Eyes are closed cannot see ignorance!
Minds are shut and they cannot think,
Person made idol never,
Stops reflect just a block of wood,
He burned half of the wood for heat,
Use wood to bake bread roast meat,
How can the rest of the wood,
Be a God why bow piece of wood? |
