Jeremiah 51:17

נִבְעַר כָּל ־ אָדָם מִדַּעַת הֹבִישׁ כָּל ־ צֹרֵף מִפָּסֶל כִּי שֶׁקֶר נִסְכּוֹ וְלֹא ־ רוּחַ בָּֽם ׃

Hebrew Tanakh (Original)

In The King James Version

Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
