Isaiah 44:19 in Chinese
19 没有一个人停下来想一下,没有一个人能稍明事理,说∶“我用这木头的一半生火,在上面烘面包,又烤肉吃,难道我还要用另一半制成令人憎恶的东西?难道我要向一块木头跪拜?”

And none doth turn `it' back unto his heart, Nor hath knowledge nor understanding to say, `Half of it I have burned in the fire, Yea, also, I have baked bread over its coals, I roast flesh and I eat, And its remnant for an abomination I make, To the stock of a tree I fall down.'
