¹² The smith with the tongs
    both works in the coals
and fashions it with hammers,
    and works it with the strength of his arms.
He becomes hungry, and his strength fails;
    He drinks no water and is faint.
¹³ The carpenter stretches out his measuring line;
    he marks it out with a line;
he fits it with planes,
    and he marks it out with the compass,
and makes it after the figure of a man,
    according to the beauty of a man,
    that it may remain in the house.
¹⁴ He hews down cedars for himself,
    and takes the cypress and the oak,
which he raises for himself among the trees of the forest.
    He plants a fir, and the rain makes it grow.
