The goldsmith overspreads it with gold,
And the silversmith casts silver chains.
The goldsmith overspreads it with gold,
And the silversmith casts silver chains.

Chooses a tree that will not rot;
He seeks for himself a skillful workman
aTo prepare a carved image that will not totter.

Has it not been told you from the beginning?
Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth?
