*
He heweth him down cedars ,
and taketh the cypress and the oak ,
which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest ya #
ar #:
he planteth an ash ,
and the rain doth nourish it .
*
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 .
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
They have not known nor understood :
for he hath shut their eyes ,
that they cannot see ;
and their hearts ,
that they cannot understand .
*
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 tow #
ebah #?
shall I fall down to the stock of a tree ?
*
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 ?
