In context
38They can show no mercy to the widow, nor do good to the fatherless.
39Their gods of wood, and which are overlaid with gold and silver, are like the stones that be hewn out of the mountain: they that worship them shall be confounded.
— Epistle of Jeremiah 1:40 —
41Who if they shall see one dumb that cannot speak, they bring him, and entreat Bel that he may speak, as though he were able to understand.
42Yet they cannot understand this themselves, and leave them: for they have no knowledge.
