Isaiah 44:17-20

Isaiah 44:17-20

[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.  [18] They have not known  nor understood:  for he hath shut  their eyes,  that they cannot see;  and their hearts,  that they cannot understand.  [19] And none considereth  in his heart,  neither is there knowledge  nor understanding  to say,  I have burned  part  of it in  the fire;  yea, also I have baked  bread  upon the coals  thereof; I have roasted  flesh,  and eaten  it: and shall I make  the residue  thereof an abomination?  shall I fall down  to the stock  of a tree?  [20] He feedeth  on ashes:  a deceived  heart  hath turned him aside,  that he cannot deliver  his soul,  nor say,  Is there not a lie  in my right hand?
