Isaiah 44:12-14

12The smithH2796 maketh an axeH1270, and worketh in the coalsH6352, and fashioneth it with hammersH4717, and worketh it with his strongH3581 armH2220: yea, he is hungryH7456, and his strengthH2220 faileth; he drinketh noH3808 waterH4325, and is faint.

13The carpenter stretcheth outH5186 a line; he marketh it outH5186 with a pencil; he shapeth it with planesH4741, and he marketh it outH5186 with the compasses, and shapeth it after the figureH8403 of a manH376, accordingH376 to the beautyH8597 of a manH376, to dwellH3427 in the houseH1004.

14He heweth him downH3772 cedarsH730, and taketh the holm treeH6086 and the oakH437, and strengtheneth for himselfH1431 one among the treesH6086 of the forestH3293: he planteth a fir treeH6086, and the rainH1653 doth nourish it.
