Isaias

13 The craftsman in wood stretcheth out a line, he marketh it with a pencil; he shapeth it with planes, and marketh it out with the compass; and maketh it like the figure of a man, like the beauty of mankind: to dwell in a house.

14 He will hew him down cedars, and taketh ilex and oak, and strengtheneth for himself (one) among the trees of the forest: he planteth a pine, and the rain maketh it great.

15 And it shall be for man for burning: and he taketh of them, and warmeth himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he fashioneth a god, and boweth himself; he maketh it a grav image, and falleth down thereto.

16 He burneth half thereof in the fire: with half thereof he eateth flesh: he roasteth roast, and is satisfied; yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen fire:

17 And the remainder thereof he maketh to be a god, to be his (graven) image 3 he falleth down unto it, and boweth himself, and prayeth unto it, saith, Deliver me 3 for thou (art) my god.

18 They know not, and they discern not; for one hath daubed their eyes, that they see not, and their hearts, that they consider not.

19 And he recalleth it not to his heart, and there is no knowledge, and no discernment to say, I have burned half of it in the fire, and also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof: I have roasted flesh and eaten it: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I bow myself to the produce of a tree?

20 He is a feeder on ashes; a deluded heart hath turned him aside, and he delivereth not his soul, nor saith, Is there not a lie in my right hand?
