Isaiah 46:6-8
Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 46:6-8
Contemporary English Version
6 Some people hire a goldsmith
and give silver and gold
to be formed into an idol
for them to worship.
7 They carry the idol
on their shoulders,
then put it on a stand,
but it cannot move.
They call out to the idol
when they are in trouble,
but it doesn't answer,
and it cannot help.
8 Now keep this in mind,[a]
you sinful people.
And don't ever forget it.
