Baruch 6:25DRA

Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 25 of 73

"The things wherein there is no breath are bought for a most high price."
Baruch 6:25

In context

23By this ye may know that they are no gods: therefore fear them not.

24Notwithstanding the gold that is about them to make them beautiful, except they wipe off the rust, they will not shine: for neither when they were molten did they feel it.

25The things wherein there is no breath are bought for a most high price.

26They are borne upon shoulders, having no feet, whereby they declare unto men that they be nothing worth.

27They also that serve them are ashamed: for if they fall to the ground at any time, they cannot rise up again of themselves: neither, if one set them upright, can they move of themselves: neither, if they be bowed down, can they make themselves straight: but they set gifts before them, as unto dead men.
