17 And he makes the remainder of it into a god!
    He bows down to his idol,
and he bows in worship and prays to him,
    and he says, “Save me, for you are my god!”
18 They do not know,
    and they do not understand,
for their eyes are besmeared so that they cannot see,[a]
    their minds[b] so that they have no insight.[c]
19 And no one takes it to heart,[d] and there is no knowledge
    and no understanding to say, “I burned half of it in the fire
and also I baked bread on its coals;
    I roasted meat, and I have eaten.
And I shall make the rest of it into an abomination!
    I shall bow down to a block of wood!”
