Isaiah 44:13

Back to Verses

The carpenter stretcheth out his rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.

The carpenter measures with a ruler, marks it with a line, shapes it with planes, and draws a circle with a compass. He makes it look like a person for the house, so it stays there beautifully.
