Isaiah 44:14 in Context — Isaiah 44
12 O ferreiro, [com] a ferramenta de corte, trabalha nas brasas, e forma [o ídolo] com martelos; e ele o faz com a força de seu braço; ele, porém, tem fome e perde as forças, e [se] não beber água, desfalece.
13 O carpinteiro estende a linha de medir, [e] o desenha com um marcador; ele o confecciona com formões, e o desenha com um compasso; e o faz à semelhança de um homem, conforme a beleza humana, para habitar numa casa.
14 Ele corta para si cedros, e toma um cipreste ou um carvalho, e reserva para si das árvores da floresta; ele planta um pinheiro, e a chuva [o] faz crescer.
15 Então [tal madeira] servirá ao homem para queimar, e toma parte deles para se aquecer, e os acende, e aquece o pão; ele também faz um deus, e o adora; fabrica dela uma imagem de escultura, e se prostra diante dela.
16 Sua metade ele queima no fogo; com a [outra] metade como carne; prepara assado, e [dele] se sacia; também se esquenta, e diz: Ah! Já me aqueci! Já vi o fogo!
