Isaiah 40:18
16 Lebanon is not sufficient for fuel, nor its animals enough for a burnt offering.
17 All the nations are as nothing before Him; He regards them as nothingness and emptiness.
To whom will you liken God? To what image will you compare Him?
19 To an idol that a craftsman casts and a metalworker overlays with gold and fits with silver chains?
20 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?
