Wisdom 13:12-15 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

12. He will take the pieces left over and use them as firewood to cook a meal that he can sit down to and enjoy.

13. But out of that scrap wood he may take one piece that isn't good for anything — maybe it's crooked and full of knots — and carefully carve it in his leisure time, using spare moments to shape it into the crude image of a person,

14. or perhaps of some worthless animal. He paints it all over with red, covering up every flaw in the work.

15. Then he prepares a suitable place in the wall for it and fastens it in place with iron nails.
