“But Yahweh is in his holy temple. Let all the earth be silent before him!”
Verse in context — Habakkuk 2
18
What value does the engraved image have, that its maker has engraved it; the molten image, even the teacher of lies, that he who fashions its form trusts in it, to make mute idols?
19
Woe to him who says to the wood, 'Awake!' or to the mute stone, 'Arise!' Shall this teach? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in its midst.
20
But Yahweh is in his holy temple. Let all the earth be silent before him!
