Isaiah 44:16-18
World English Bible
16 He burns part of it in the fire.
With part of it, he eats meat.
He roasts a roast, and is satisfied.
Yes, he warms himself,
and says, “Aha! I am warm. I have seen the fire.”
17 The rest of it he makes into a god,
even his engraved image.
He bows down to it and worships,
and prays to it, and says, “Deliver me; for you are my god!”
18 They don’t know, neither do they consider:
for he has shut their eyes, that they can’t see;
and their hearts, that they can’t understand.
Isaiah 44:16-18
New International Version
16 Half of the wood he burns in the fire;
over it he prepares his meal,
he roasts his meat and eats his fill.
He also warms himself and says,
“Ah! I am warm; I see the fire.(A)”
17 From the rest he makes a god, his idol;
he bows down to it and worships.(B)
He prays(C) to it and says,
“Save(D) me! You are my god!”
18 They know nothing, they understand(E) nothing;
their eyes(F) are plastered over so they cannot see,
and their minds closed so they cannot understand.
