  • 1. ¶ BEL has fallen down, Nebo is overthrown; their idols were loaded as burdens upon beasts, yea, upon weary beasts and cattle.
  • 2. They were overthrown, they have fallen down together; they could not rescue those who carried them, but they themselves are gone into captivity.
  • 3. Hearken to me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, even those who are borne in the belly and who still are carried in the womb:
  • 4. Even to your old age I am he; and even to gray hairs I will endure. I have made and I will sustain; even I will carry and will deliver.
  • 5. ¶ To whom will you liken me and make me equal and compare me, that we may be alike?
  • 6. To those who go astray, who pour out gold from their bags and weigh silver in the balance and hire a goldsmith; and they make it a god; they worship it, and they also pray to it?
  • 7. They bear it upon their shoulders, they carry it and set it in its place, and it cannot rise up from its place; they also pray to it, but it does not answer them nor save them from their troubles.
  • 8. Remember these things and discern; bring it again to your mind, O you transgressors!
  • 9. Remember the former things of old; for I am God, and there is no other god; and there is none like me,
  • 10. Declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure,
  • 11. Calling a ruler swift as a bird from the east, the man who executes my counsel from a far land; yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.
  • 12. Hearken to me, O you stubborn of heart, that are far from righteousness;
  • 13. My righteousness is near; it shall not be far off, my salvation shall not tarry; and I will give salvation in Zion and for Israel my glory.
