# the qualities of deity are like
Here "deity" refers to God's nature or attributes. Alternate translation: "God is like" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "which a man then uses his skill to make it into something that he has designed" or "images that people make by using their art and imagination" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
