NASB					Is 10:15 ¶ Is the ^Aaxe¹⁶³¹ to ^Bboast⁶²⁸⁶ itself over⁵⁹²¹ the one who chops²⁶⁷² with it? Is the saw⁴⁸⁸³ to exalt¹⁴³¹ itself over⁵⁹²¹ the one who wields⁵¹³⁰ it? That would be like ^Ca ¹club⁷⁶²⁶ wielding⁵¹³⁰ those who lift⁷³¹¹ it, Or like ^Ca rod⁴²⁹⁴ lifting⁷³¹¹ him who is not wood⁶⁰⁸⁶.
AMPLIFIED 2015					Is 10:15 ¶ Is the axe able to lift itself over the one who chops with it? Is the saw able to magnify itself over the one who wields it? That would be like a club moving those who lift it, Or like a staff raising him who is not [made of] wood [like itself]!
