23 And thou hast been exalted against the Lord God of heaven; and they have brought before thee the vessels of his house, and thou, and thy nobles, and thy mistresses, and thy concubines, have drunk wine out of them; and thou hast praised the gods of gold, and silver, and brass, and iron, and wood, and stone, which see not, and which hear not, and know not: and the God in whose hand are thy breath and all thy ways hast thou not glorified.
Umejiinua mwenyewe kinyume cha Bwana wa mbinguni. Katika nyumba yake walikuletea vyombo ambavyo wewe, wakuu wako, wake zako na masuria wako walivinywea, na kisha ukaisifia sana sanamu zilitengenezwa kwa fedha na dhahabu, shaba, chuma, mbao, na mawe - sanamu ambazo haziwezi kuona, kusikia wa kujua kitu chochote. Haujamheshimu Mungu ambaye anaishikilia pumzi yako katika mkono wake na ambaye anazijua njia zako zote.
