6:25 The things wherein there is no breath are bought for a most high price.
6:26 They are borne upon shoulders, having no feet whereby they declare unto men that they be nothing worth.
6:27 They also that serve them are ashamed: for if they fall to the ground at any time, they cannot rise up again of themselves: neither, if one set them upright, can they move of themselves: neither, if they be bowed down, can they make themselves straight: but they set gifts before them as unto dead men.
6:28 As for the things that are sacrificed unto them, their priests sell and abuse; in like manner their wives lay up part thereof in salt; but unto the poor and impotent they give nothing of it.
6:29 Menstruous women and women in childbed eat their sacrifices: by these things ye may know that they are no gods: fear them not.
6:30 For how can they be called gods? because women set meat before the gods of silver, gold, and wood.
6:31 And the priests sit in their temples, having their clothes rent, and their heads and beards shaven, and nothing upon their heads.
6:32 They roar and cry before their gods, as men do at the feast when one is dead.
6:33 The priests also take off their garments, and clothe their wives and children.
6:34 Whether it be evil that one doeth unto them, or good, they are not able to recompense it: they can neither set up a king, nor put him down.
