Gods of Babylon

46Bel bows down, Nebo stoops low; their idols are borne by beasts of burden. The images that are carried about are burdensome, a burden for the weary.H1078H3766H5015H7164H6091H2416H929H5385H6006H4853H5889 2They stoop and bow down together; unable to rescue the burden, they themselves go off into captivity.H7164H3766H3162H3201H4422H4853H5315H1980H7628 3"Listen to me, O house of Jacob, all you who remain of the house of Israel, you whom I have upheld since you were conceived, an have carried since your birth.H8085H1004H3290H7611H1004H3478H6006H990H5375H7356 4Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.H2209H7872H5445H6213H5375H5445H4422 5"To whom will you compare me or count me equal? To whom will you liken me that we may be compared?H1819H7737H4911H1819 6Some pour out gold from their bags and weigh out silver on the scales; they hire a goldsmith to make it into a god, and they bow down and worship it.H2107H2091H3599H8254H3701H7070H7936H6884H6213H410H5456H7812 7They lift it to their shoulders and carry it; they set it up in its place, and there it stands. From that spot it cannot move. Though one cries out to it, it does not answer; it cannot save him from his troubles.H5375H3802H5445H3240H5975H4725H4185H6817H6030H3467H6869 8"Remember this, fix it in mind, take it to heart, you rebels.H2142H377H7725H3820H6586 9Remember the former things, those of long ago; I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me.H2142H7223H5769H410H430H657H3644 10I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.H5046H319H7225H6924H6213H559H6098H6965H6213H2656 11From the east I summon a bird of prey; from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose. What I have said, that will I bring about; what I have planned, that will I do.H7121H5861H4217H376H6098H4801H776H1696H935H3335H6213 12Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted, you who are far from righteousness.H8085H47H3820H7350H6666 13I am bringing my righteousness near, it is not far away; and my salvation will not be delayed. I will grant salvation to Zion, my splendor to Israel.H7126H6666H7368H8668H309H5414H8668H6726H3478H8597
