以賽亞書 44:12

鐵匠把鐵在火炭中燒熱，用鎚打鐵器，用他有力的膀臂錘成；他飢餓而無力，不喝水而發倦。

tiě jiàng bǎ tiě zài huǒ tàn zhōng shāo rè ， yòng chuí dǎ tiě qì ， yòng tā yǒu lì de bǎng bì chuí chéng ； tā jī è ér wú lì ， bù hē shuǐ ér fā juàn 。

The blacksmith takes an ax, works in the coals, fashions it with hammers, and works it with his strong arm. He is hungry, and his strength fails; he drinks no water, and is faint.
