American Standard Version
Every man is become brutish `and is' without knowledge; every goldsmith is put to shame by his image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

Amplified® Bible
Every man has become stupid {and} brutelike, without knowledge [of God]; every goldsmith is put to shame by the images he has made; for his molten idols are a lie, and there is no breath [of life] in them.

Contemporary English Version
People who make idols are stupid! They will be disappointed, because their false gods cannot breathe.

Darby English Version
Every man is become brutish, so as to have no knowledge; every founder is put to shame by the graven image, for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

Good News Bible
At the sight of this, people feel stupid and senseless; those who make idols are disillusioned because the gods they make are false and lifeless.

King James Version
Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

New American Standard Bible
All mankind is stupid, devoid of knowledge; Every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols, For his molten images are deceitful, And there is no breath in them.

New International Version
"Every man is senseless and without knowledge;
every goldsmith is shamed by his idols.
His images are a fraud;
they have no breath in them.

New King James Version
Everyone is dull-hearted, without knowledge;
Every metalsmith is put to shame by the carved image;
For his molded image is falsehood,
And there is no breath in them.

N.A.S.B. in E-Prime
All mankind remains stupid, devoid of knowledge; Every goldsmith falls into shame by his idols, For his molten images seem deceitful, And they have no breath in them.

Revised Standard Version
Every man is stupid and without knowledge; every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols; for his images are false, and there is no breath in them.

Young's Literal Translation
Brutish hath been every man by knowledge, Put to shame hath been every refiner by a graven image, For false `is' his molten image, And there is no breath in them.
