KJV ORIGINAL
What profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
What's the point of making a statue and then worshipping it? You literally just carved it yourself. It's a fake god that can't even speak, and you're trusting something that teaches you lies. You made it with your own hands — how is that supposed to save you?
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Don't worship what you created — it can't create anything for you.
