      Isaiah

      Chapter 46 of 66

      Isaiah 46 (Listen)

      The Idols of Babylon and the One True God

      46:1   Bel bows down; Nebo stoops;
          their idols are on beasts and livestock;
        these things you carry are borne
          as burdens on weary beasts.
      2   They stoop; they bow down together;
          they cannot save the burden,
          but themselves go into captivity.
      3   “Listen to me, O house of Jacob,
          all the remnant of the house of Israel,
        who have been borne by me from before your birth,
          carried from the womb;
      4   even to your old age I am he,
          and to gray hairs I will carry you.
        I have made, and I will bear;
          I will carry and will save.
      5   “To whom will you liken me and make me equal,
          and compare me, that we may be alike?
      6   Those who lavish gold from the purse,
          and weigh out silver in the scales,
        hire a goldsmith, and he makes it into a god;
          then they fall down and worship!
      7   They lift it to their shoulders, they carry it,
          they set it in its place, and it stands there;
          it cannot move from its place.
        If one cries to it, it does not answer
          or save him from his trouble.
      8   “Remember this and stand firm,
          recall it to mind, you transgressors,
      9     remember the former things of old;
        for I am God, and there is no other;
          I am God, and there is none like me,
      10   declaring the end from the beginning
          and from ancient times things not yet done,
        saying, ‘My counsel shall stand,
          and I will accomplish all my purpose,’
      11   calling a bird of prey from the east,
          the man of my counsel from a far country.
        I have spoken, and I will bring it to pass;
          I have purposed, and I will do it.
      12   “Listen to me, you stubborn of heart,
          you who are far from righteousness:
      13   I bring near my righteousness; it is not far off,
          and my salvation will not delay;
        I will put salvation in Zion,
          for Israel my glory.”

      Isaiah
