9All makers of idols are nothing, and the things they treasure are worthless. Their witnesses fail to see or comprehend, so they are put to shame.
“Those who fashion a graven image are all of them futile, and their precious things are of no profit. Even their own witnesses fail to see or know so that they will be put to shame.”
“they that make a graven image all of them vanity and their delectable things shall not profit. They are not their own witnesses. They see not nor know that they may be ashamed.”
10Who fashions a god or casts an idol which profits him nothing?

12The blacksmith takes a tool and labors over the coals; he fashions an idol with hammers and forges it with his strong arms. Yet he grows hungry and loses his strength; he fails to drink water and grows faint.

13The woodworker extends a measuring line; he marks it out with a stylus; he shapes it with chisels and outlines it with a compass. He fashions it in the likeness of man, like man in all his glory, that it may dwell in a shrine.
“Another shapes wood. He extends a measuring line. He outlines it with red chalk. He works it with planes and outlines it with a compass and makes it like the form of a man, like the beauty of a man so that it may sit in a house.”
14He cuts down cedars or retrieves a cypress or oak. He lets it grow strong among the trees of the forest. He plants a laurel, and the rain makes it grow.
“Surely he cuts cedars for himself and takes a cypress or an oak and raises it for himself among the trees of the forest. He plants a fir and the rain makes it grow.”
“surely He cuts cedars for Himself and takes a cypress or an oak and raises it for Himself among the trees of the forest. He plants a fir and the rain makes it grow.”

15It serves as fuel for man. He takes some of it to warm himself, and he kindles a fire and bakes his bread; he even fashions it into a god and worships it; he makes an idol and bows down to it.
“Then it becomes something for a man to burn. So He takes one of them and warms Himself. He also makes a fire to bake bread. He also makes a god and worships it. He makes it a graven image and falls down before it.”

16He burns half of it in the fire, and he roasts meat on that half. He eats the roast and is satisfied. Indeed, he warms himself and says, "Ah! I am warm; I see the fire."
“Half of it he burns in the fire. Over this half he eats meat as he roasts a roast and is satisfied. He also warms himself and says, aha, I am warm. I've seen the fire.”

17From the rest he makes a god, his graven image. He bows down to it and worships; he prays to it and says, "Save me, for you are my god."
“But the rest of it he makes into a god, his graven image. He falls down before it and worships. He also prays to it and says, deliver me, for you are my god.”
“But the rest of it He makes into a god, His graven image. He falls down before it and worships. He also prays to it and says, Deliver me for Thou art my God.”

19And no one considers in his heart, no one has the knowledge or insight to say, "I burned half of it in the fire, and I baked bread on its coals; I roasted meat and I ate. Shall I make something detestable with the rest of it? Shall I bow down to a block of wood?"
“no one recalls, nor is there knowledge or understanding to say, I have burned half of it in the fire and also have baked bread over its coals. I roast meat and eat it. Then I make the rest of it into an abomination. I fall down…”
“No one recalls, nor is there knowledge or understanding to say, I have burned half of it in the fire and also I have baked bread over its coals. I roast meat and eat it. Then I make the rest of it into an abomination. I fall down…”
