Isaiah 40:18-20

English Standard Version

^18 (A)To whom then will you liken God,
    ^(B)or what likeness compare with him?
^19 (C)An idol! A craftsman casts it,
    and a goldsmith overlays it with gold
    and casts for it silver chains.
^20 (D)He who is too impoverished for an offering
    chooses wood^[a] that will not rot;
he seeks out a skillful craftsman
    to set up an idol that will not move.
