== Yeshayahu (Book of Isaiah), Chapter 46 ==

<named id="1"/>1 Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth; their idols are upon the beasts, and upon the cattle; the things that ye carried about are made a load, a burden to the weary beast.

<named id="2"/>2 They stoop, they bow down together, they could not deliver the burden; and themselves are gone into captivity.

<named id="3"/>3 Hearken unto Me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, that are borne by Me from the birth, that are carried from the womb:

<named id="4"/>4 Even to old age I am the same, and even to hoar hairs will I carry you; I have made, and I will bear; yea, I will carry, and will deliver.

<named id="5"/>5 To whom will ye liken Me, and make Me equal, and compare Me, that we may be like?

<named id="6"/>6 Ye that lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance; ye that hire a goldsmith, that he make it a god, to fall down thereto, yea, to worship.

<named id="7"/>7 He is borne upon the shoulder, he is carried, and set in his place, and he standeth, from his place he doth not remove; yea, though one cry unto him, he cannot answer, nor save him out of his trouble.

<named id="8"/>8 Remember this, and stand fast; bring it to mind, O ye transgressors.

<named id="9"/>9 Remember the former things of old: that I am G-d, and there is none else; I am G-d, and there is none like Me;

<named id="10"/>10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done; saying: 'My counsel shall stand, and all My pleasure will I do';

<named id="11"/>11 Calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of My counsel from a far country; yea, I have spoken, I will also bring it to pass, I have purposed, I will also do it.

<named id="12"/>12 Hearken unto Me, ye stout-hearted, that are far from righteousness:

<named id="13"/>13 I bring near My righteousness, it shall not be far off, and My salvation shall not tarry; and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel My glory.
