Wisdom 15:14

Listen to Wisdom 15:14
14 But the people who are most foolish of all, and even more to be pitied than the soul of a little child, are the enemies who oppressed your people.

Wisdom 15:14 In-Context

12 They think that life is just a game. They think that our day-to-day existence is just a profit-seeking carnival. As they say: "You must earn a living however you can, even if it means doing the wrong thing."
13 These people know better than anyone else that they are sinning when they give shape to equipment and images that are easily broken, because they are both fashioned from the same earthy material.
14 But the people who are most foolish of all, and even more to be pitied than the soul of a little child, are the enemies who oppressed your people.
15 These enemies considered the nation's idols to be gods, even though these idols have no eyes for seeing, no nostrils for breathing air, no ears for hearing, no fingers for touching, and no feet for walking.
16 A mere human made them. A person who has been given his spirit on loan crafted them. But no human is ever able to fashion a god who is anything like God.
