Isaiah 44:14-17

Isaiah 44:14-17

[14] He heweth him down  cedars,  and taketh  the cypress  and the oak,  which he strengtheneth  for himself among the trees  of the forest:  he planteth  an ash,  and the rain  doth nourish  it. [15] Then shall it be for a man  to burn:  for he will take  thereof, and warm  himself; yea, he kindleth  it, and baketh  bread;  yea, he maketh  a god,  and worshippeth  it; he maketh  it a graven image,  and falleth down  thereto. [16] He burneth  part  thereof in  the fire;  with part  thereof he eateth  flesh;  he roasteth  roast,  and is satisfied:  yea, he warmeth  himself, and saith,  Aha,  I am warm,  I have seen  the fire:  [17] And the residue  thereof he maketh  a god,  even his graven image:  he falleth down  unto it, and worshippeth  it, and prayeth  unto it, and saith,  Deliver  me; for thou art my god.
