Isaiah 40:20


Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

To one bereft of an offering who chooses wood that will not rot, who seeks a skilled craftsman to set up an idol that will not topple?


World English Bible (WEB)

He who is too impoverished for such an offering chooses a tree that will not rot. He seeks a skillful workman to set up an engraved image for him that will not be moved.


Strong's King James

He that is so impoverished{H5533}{(H8794)}{(H8676)}{H5534}{(H8765)} that he hath no oblation{H8641} chooseth{H977}{(H8799)} a tree{H6086} that will not rot{H7537}{(H8799)}; he seeketh{H1245}{(H8762)} unto him a cunning{H2450} workman{H2796} to prepare{H3559}{(H8687)} a graven image{H6459}, that shall not be moved{H4131}{(H8735)}.

Young's Literal Translation

He who is poor by heave-offerings, A tree not rotten doth choose, A skilful artisan he seeketh for it, To establish a graven image—not moved.
