2 Kings 19:18

And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.

KJV

Et miserunt deos eorum in ignem : non enim erant dii, sed opera manuum hominum, ex ligno et lapide : et perdiderunt eos.

Vulgate

καὶ ἔδωκαν τοὺς θεοὺς αὐτῶν εἰς τὸ πῦρ, ὅτι οὐ θεοί εἰσιν ἀλλ’ ἢ ἔργα χειρῶν ἀνθρώπων, ξύλα καὶ λίθος, καὶ ἀπώλεσαν αὐτούς.

LXX

and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone; therefore they have destroyed them.
