# Isaiah 46 (New King James Version)
|
|
Dead Idols and the Living God
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 46
|
|
###### 1 Bel bows down, Nebo stoops;
|
|
Their idols were on the beasts and on the cattle.
|
|
Your carriages _were_ heavily loaded,
|
|
A burden to the weary _beast._
|
|
|
|
###### 2 They stoop, they bow down together;
|
|
They could not deliver the burden,
|
|
But have themselves gone into captivity.
|
|
|
|
###### 3 "Listen to Me, O house of Jacob,
|
|
And all the remnant of the house of Israel,
|
|
Who have been upheld _by Me_ from birth,
|
|
Who have been carried from the womb:
|
|
|
|
###### 4 Even to _your_ old age, I _am_ He,
|
|
And _even_ to gray hairs I will carry _you!_
|
|
I have made, and I will bear;
|
|
Even I will carry, and will deliver _you._
|
|
|
|
###### 5 "To whom will you liken Me, and make _Me_ equal
|
|
And compare Me, that we should be alike?
|
|
|
|
###### 6 They lavish gold out of the bag,
|
|
And weigh silver on the scales;
|
|
They hire a goldsmith, and he makes it a god;
|
|
They prostrate themselves, yes, they worship.
|
|
|
|
###### 7 They bear it on the shoulder, they carry it
|
|
And set it in its place, and it stands;
|
|
From its place it shall not move.
|
|
Though _one_ cries out to it, yet it cannot answer
|
|
Nor save him out of his trouble.
|
|
|
|
###### 8 "Remember this, and show yourselves men;
|
|
Recall to mind, O 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_ that are not _yet_ done,
|
|
Saying, 'My counsel shall stand,
|
|
And I will do all My pleasure,'
|
|
|
|
###### 11 Calling a bird of prey from the east,
|
|
The man who executes My counsel, from a far country.
|
|
Indeed I have spoken _it;_
|
|
I will also bring it to pass.
|
|
I have purposed _it;_
|
|
I will also do it.
|
|
|
|
###### 12 "Listen to Me, you stubborn-hearted,
|
|
Who _are_ far from righteousness:
|
|
|
|
###### 13 I bring My righteousness near, it shall not be far off;
|
|
My salvation shall not linger.
|
|
And I will place salvation in Zion,
|
|
For Israel My glory.
