Isaiah 40:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 The workman melteth an image, or the goldsmith beateth it out in gold, or the goldsmith maketh silver plates.
20 Doth not [a]the poor choose out a tree that will not rot, for an oblation? he seeketh also unto him a cunning workman, to prepare an image that shall not be moved.
21 Know ye nothing? have ye not heard [b]it? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood it by the [c]foundation of the earth?
