Isa 44:19 | NET2full | STEP | No one thinks to himself , nor do they comprehend or understand and say to themselves: ‘I burned half of it in the fire — yes , I baked bread over the coals ; I roasted meat and ate it. With the rest of it should I make a disgusting idol ? Should I bow down to dry wood ?’

‏ Isaiah 44:19

19 No one thinks to himself,
nor do they comprehend or understand and say to themselves:
‘I burned half of it in the fire—
yes, I baked bread over the coals;
I roasted meat and ate it.
With the rest of it should I make a disgusting idol?
Should I bow down to dry wood?’ ^{▼▼tn There is no formal interrogative sign here, but the context seems to indicate these are rhetorical questions. See GKC 473 §150.a.}
