In context
70For as a scarecrow in a garden of cucumbers keepeth nothing: so are their gods of wood, and laid over with silver and gold.
71And likewise their gods of wood, and laid over with silver and gold, are like to a white thorn in an orchard, that every bird sitteth upon; as also to a dead body, that is cast into the dark.
— Epistle of Jeremiah 1:72 —
73Better therefore is the just man that hath no idols: for he shall be far from reproach.
