Isaiah 44:17-19
Modern English Version
Isaiah 44:17-19
Modern English Version
17 And the rest he makes into a god, even his carved image.
He falls down to it, and worships it,
and prays to it, and says,
“Deliver me, for you are my god.”
18 They have not known nor understood;
for He has shut their eyes so that they cannot see,
and their hearts so that they cannot understand.
19 No one considers in his heart,
nor is there knowledge nor understanding to say,
“I have burned part of it in the fire;
I also have baked bread on the coals;
I have roasted meat and eaten it;
and shall I make the rest into an abomination?
Shall I fall down to a block of wood?”
Isaiah 44:17-19
New International Version
Isaiah 44:17-19
New International Version
17 From the rest he makes a god, his idol;
he bows down to it and worships.(A)
He prays(B) to it and says,
“Save(C) me! You are my god!”
18 They know nothing, they understand(D) nothing;
their eyes(E) are plastered over so they cannot see,
and their minds closed so they cannot understand.
19 No one stops to think,
no one has the knowledge or understanding(F) to say,
“Half of it I used for fuel;(G)
I even baked bread over its coals,
I roasted meat and I ate.
Shall I make a detestable(H) thing from what is left?
Shall I bow down to a block of wood?”(I)
