Should an ax brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who is not wood.Isaiah 10:15 · WEB

- ગુજરાતી — યશાયા ૧૦:૧૫
- શું કુહાડી તેના વાપરનાર આગળ બડાશ મારશે? શું કરવત તેના વાપરનારની પર સરસાઈ કરશે? શું લાકડી તેને પકડનારને ઉઠાવે અને લાકડું માણસને ઉઠાવે તેમ એ છે.
- हिन्दी — यशायाह १०:१५
- क्या कुल्हाड़ा उसके विरुद्ध जो उससे काटता हो डींग मारे, या आरी उसके विरुद्ध जो उसे खींचता हो बड़ाई करे? क्या सोंटा अपने चलानेवाले को चलाए या छड़ी उसे उठाए जो काठ नहीं है!
In context
13For he has said, “By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom, for I have understanding. I have removed the boundaries of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures. Like a valiant man I have brought down their rulers.
14My hand has found the riches of the peoples like a nest, and like one gathers eggs that are abandoned, I have gathered all the earth. There was no one who moved their wing, or that opened their mouth, or chirped.”
15Should an ax brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who is not wood.
16Therefore the Lord, GOD of Armies, will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled like the burning of fire.
17The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.
