Isaiah 46:6-7

Expanded Bible

⁶ Some people ·are rich with gold [^Lpour out gold from their bags]
    and 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 [or cry out to] it, but it cannot answer.
    It cannot save them from their troubles.
