Isaiah 44:19-21

Modern English Version

¹⁹ No one considers in his heart,
    nor is there knowledge nor understanding to say,
“I have burned part of it in the fire;
    I also have baked bread on the coals;
    I have roasted meat and eaten it;
and shall I make the rest into an abomination?
    Shall I fall down to a block of wood?”
²⁰ He feeds on ashes; a deceived heart has turned him aside
    so that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say,
    “Is there not a lie in my right hand?”

²¹ Remember these things, O Jacob,
    and Israel, for you are My servant;
I have formed you; you are My servant;
    O Israel, you shall not be forgotten by Me.
