Isaiah 44:17-20

17From the restH7611 he makesH6213 a godH410, his graven imageH6459. He bows down to itH5456 and worshipsH7812; he praysH6419 to itH413 and saysH559, “Save meH5337, forH3588 youH859 are my godH410.”

18They do notH3808 comprehendH3045 or discernH995,forH3588 He has shutH2902 their eyesH5869 so they cannot seeH7200and closed their mindsH3820 so they cannot understandH7919.19And no oneH3808 considersH7725 inH413 his heartH3820,noH3808 one has the knowledgeH1847H3808 or insightH8394 to sayH559,“I burnedH8313 halfH2677 of it inH1119 the fireH784,and IH637 bakedH644 breadH3899 onH5921 its coalsH1513;I roastedH6740 meatH1320 and I ateH398.Shall I makeH6213 something detestableH8441 with the rest of itH3499?Shall I bow downH5456 to a blockH944 of woodH6086?”20He feeds onH7462 ashesH665.His deludedH2048 heartH3820 has led him astrayH5186,and he cannotH3808 deliverH5337 himselfH5315 or sayH559,“Is notH3808 this thing in my right handH3225 a lieH8267?”
