37 Then he will say, ‘Where are their gods,+

The rock in whom they sought refuge,

38 Who used to eat the fat of their sacrifices,*

To drink the wine of their drink offerings?+

“We have made a covenant with Death,+

And with the Grave* we have made an agreement.*

When the raging flash flood passes through,

It will not reach us,

For we have made a lie our refuge

And we have hidden ourselves in falsehood.”+

Every metalworker will be put to shame because of the carved image;+

For his metal image* is a falsehood,

And there is no spirit* in them.+
