Isaiah 44:15-17

World English Bible

¹⁵ Then it will be for a man to burn;
    and he takes some of it and warms himself.
    Yes, he burns it and bakes bread.
Yes, he makes a god and worships it;
    he makes it a carved image, and falls down to it.
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!”
