Isaiah 44:11-13
Darby Translation
11 Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed; and the workmen are but men. Let them all be gathered together, let them stand up: they shall fear, they shall be ashamed together.
12 The iron-smith [hath] a chisel, and he worketh in the coals, and he fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with his strong arm;—but he is hungry, and his strength faileth; he hath not drunk water, and he is faint.
13 The worker in wood stretcheth out a line; he marketh it out with red chalk; he formeth it with sharp tools, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of man: that it may remain in the house.

Isaiah 44:11-13
New International Version
11 People who do that will be put to shame;(A)
such craftsmen are only human beings.
Let them all come together and take their stand;
they will be brought down to terror and shame.(B)
12 The blacksmith(C) takes a tool
and works with it in the coals;
he shapes an idol with hammers,
he forges it with the might of his arm.(D)
He gets hungry and loses his strength;
he drinks no water and grows faint.(E)
13 The carpenter(F) measures with a line
and makes an outline with a marker;
he roughs it out with chisels
and marks it with compasses.
He shapes it in human form,(G)
human form in all its glory,
that it may dwell in a shrine.(H)
