Another worker uses his stringline {\cf2\super [393]} and compass {\cf2\super [394]} to draw lines on the wood. \{This shows where he should cut\}. Then the man uses his chisels {\cf2\super [395]} and cuts a statue from the wood. He uses his calipers {\cf2\super [396]} to measure the statue. This way, the worker makes the wood look exactly like a man. And this statue of a man does nothing but sit in its house.
The other people \{on the earth\} were not killed by these bad things. But these people still did not change their hearts and lives and turn away from the things they had made with their own hands. They did not stop worshiping demons {\cf2\super [72]} and idols {\cf2\super [73]} made of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood—things that cannot see or hear or walk.
