Woe to him that saith to a tree, Wake thou; (and), Rise thou, to a stone being still; whether he shall be able to teach? Lo! this (thing) is covered with gold and silver, and no spirit is in his entrails. (Woe to you who saith to a piece of wood, Wake up thou! and, Rise thou! to a stone being still; shall it be able to teach you (anything)? Behold! this thing is covered with gold and silver, but there is no breath in its innards.)
