Isaiah:46

* Bel has bowed ; Nebo stoops ; their idols are for the beast , and for the cattle ; your things carried are loads ; a burden for the weary . * They stoop ; they bow together ; they are not able to deliver the burden ; and their soul has gone into captivity . * Listen to me , O house of Jacob , and all the remnant of the house of Israel ; who are borne from the belly , who are lifted from the womb : * Even to old age I am He ; and I will bear to gray hair ; I made , and I will carry ; and I will bear and deliver . * To whom will you compare and make Me equal ; yea , compare Me , that we may be alike ? * Those who lavish gold out of the bag , and weigh silver on the measuring rod ; they hire a refiner and he makes it a god . They fall down ; yea , they worship . * They carry it on the shoulder ; they bear it and set it in its place , and it stands ; it shall not move from its place . Yes , he cries to it , but it does not answer , it does not save him from his distress . * Remember this and be a man ; return it on your heart , transgressors . * Remember former things from forever , for I am God , and no one else is God , even none like Me , * declaring the end from the beginning , and from the past those things which were not done , saying , My purpose shall rise ; and , I will do all My desire ; * calling a bird of prey from the sunrise , the man of My counsel from a far off land . Yes , I have spoken ; yes , I will cause it to come ; I have formed ; yes , I will do it . * Listen to Me , mighty ones of heart who are far from righteousness : * I bring near My righteousness ; it shall not be far off , and My salvation shall not wait ; I will place salvation in Zion , My glory for Israel .
