Isaiah 40:20

He who is too impoverished for an offering chooses wood that will not rot ; he seeks out a skillful craftsman to set up an idol that will not move .

A person too poor to present such an offering selects wood that will not rot; they look for a skilled worker to set up an idol that will not topple.

He that is so impoverished that he hath no oblation chooseth a tree that will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to prepare a graven image, that shall not be moved.
