Isaiah 44:17-19
Holman Christian Standard Bible
17 He makes a god or his idol with the rest of it.
He bows down to it and worships;
He prays to it,(A) “Save me, for you are my god.”
18 Such people[a] do not comprehend
and cannot understand,
for He has shut their eyes[b] so they cannot see,
and their minds so they cannot understand.
19 No one reflects,
no one has the perception or insight to say,
“I burned half of it in the fire,
I also baked bread on its coals,
I roasted meat and ate.
I will make something detestable(B) with the rest of it,
and I will bow down to a block of wood.”
