Isaiah 46:6-8

International Children’s Bible

⁶ Some people are rich with gold.
    They weigh their silver on the scales.
They hire a goldsmith, and he makes it into a god.
    Then they bow down and worship it.
⁷ They put it on their shoulders and carry it.
    They set it in its place, and there it stands.
    It cannot move from its place.
People may yell at it, but it cannot answer.
    It cannot save people from their troubles.
