Wisdom 15:4-6

Revised Standard Version

⁴ For neither has the evil intent of human art misled us,
nor the fruitless toil of painters,
a figure stained with varied colors,
⁵ whose appearance arouses yearning in fools,
so that they desire^[a] the lifeless form of a dead image.
⁶ Lovers of evil things and fit for such objects of hope^[b]
are those who either make or desire or worship them.
