Isaiah 44:11-13

Lexham English Bible

¹¹ Look! all his companions shall be ashamed,
    and the artisans are human!
Let all of them assemble;
    let them stand up.
They shall tremble;^[a]
    they shall be ashamed together.
¹² The ironsmith^[b] works in the coals with his tool
    and forms it with hammers.
And he makes it with his strong arm;^[c]
    indeed, he becomes hungry, and he lacks^[d] strength;
    he does not drink water, and he is faint.
¹³ The woodworker^[e] stretches out a line;
    he makes an outline of it with a marker.
He makes it with a knife
    and makes an outline of it with a compass.
He makes it like the image of a man,
    like the beauty of a human, to dwell in a temple.^[f]
