Isaiah 44:12-15

12The iron-smith [hath] a chisel, and he worketh in the coals, and he fashioneth it with hammersH4717, and worketh it with his strong armH2220; — but he is hungryH7456, and his strengthH2220 faileth; he hath not drunkH8354 waterH4325, and he is faint.

13The worker in woodH6086 stretcheth out a line; he marketh it out with red chalk; he formeth it with sharp tools, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a manH376, according to the beautyH8597 of manH376: that it may remainH3427 in the houseH1004.

14When he heweth him downH3772 cedarsH730, he taketh also a holm-oak and a terebinth — he chooseth for himself among the treesH6086 of the forestH3293: he planteth a pine, and the rainH1653 maketh [it] growH1431.

15And it shall beH1961 for a manH120 to burnH1197, and he taketh thereof, and warmeth himself; he kindleth it alsoH637, and baketh breadH3899; he maketh alsoH637 a 1godH410, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven imageH6459, and falleth downH7812 thereto.
