Isaiah 46

1 The idols of Babylon could not save themselves. 3 God saveth his people to the end. 5 Idols are not comparable to God for power, 12 or present salvation.

 46:1 ¶ Bel 1078 boweth down, 3766 z8804 Nebo 5015 stoopeth, 7164 z8802 their idols 6091 were x1961 upon the beasts, 2416 and upon the cattle: 929 your carriages 5385 [were] heavy laden; 6006 z8803 [they are] a burden 4853 to the weary 5889 [beast].

 46:2 They stoop, 7164 z8804 they bow down 3766 z8804 together; 3162 they could 3201 z8804 not x3808 deliver 4422 z8763 the burden, 4853 but themselves 5315 are gone 1980 z8804 into captivity. 7628

 46:3 ¶ Hearken 8085 z8798 unto x413 me, O house 1004 of Jacob, 3290 and all x3605 the remnant 7611 of the house 1004 of Israel, 3478 which are borne 6006 z8803 [by me] from x4480 the belly, 990 which are carried 5375 z8803 from x4480 the womb: 7356

 46:4 And [even] to x5704 [your] old age 2209 I x589 [am] he; x1931 and [even] to x5704 hoar hairs 7872 will I x589 carry 5445 z8799 [you]: I x589 have made, 6213 z8804 and I x589 will bear; 5375 z8799 even I x589 will carry, 5445 z8799 and will deliver 4422 z8762 [you].

 46:5 ¶ To whom x4310 will ye liken 1819 z8762 me, and make [me] equal, 7737 z8686 and compare 4911 z8686 me, that we may be like? 1819 z8799

 46:6 They lavish 2107 z8801 gold 2091 out of the bag, 3599 x4480 and weigh 8254 z8799 silver 3701 in the balance, 7070 [and] hire 7936 z8799 a goldsmith; 6884 z8802 and he maketh 6213 z8799 it a god: 410 they fall down, 5456 z8799 yea, x637 they worship. 7812 z8691

 46:7 They bear 5375 z8799 him upon x5921 the shoulder, 3802 they carry 5445 z8799 him, and set x5117 him in his place, y3240 z8686 x8478 and he standeth; 5975 z8799 from his place 4725 x4480 shall he not x3808 remove: 4185 z8686 yea, x637 [one] shall cry 6817 z8799 unto x413 him, yet can he not x3808 answer, 6030 z8799 nor x3808 save 3467 z8686 him out of his trouble. 6869 x4480

 46:8 Remember 2142 z8798 this, x2063 and show yourselves men: 377 z8695 bring [it] again 7725 z8685 to x5921 mind, 3820 O ye transgressors. 6586 z8802

 46:9 Remember 2142 z8798 the former things 7223 of old: 5769 x4480 for x3588 I x595 [am] God, 410 and [there is] none x369 else; x5750 [I am] God, 430 and [there is] none 657 like y3644 me, x3644

 46:10 Declaring 5046 z8688 the end 319 from the beginning, 7225 x4480 and from ancient times 6924 x4480 [the things] that x834 are not x3808 [yet] done, 6213 z8738 saying, 559 z8802 My counsel 6098 shall stand, 6965 z8799 and I will do 6213 z8799 all x3605 my pleasure: 2656

 46:11 Calling 7121 z8802 a ravenous bird 5861 from the east, 4217 x4480 the man 376 that executeth my counsel 6098 from a far 4801 country: 776 x4480 yea, x637 I have spoken 1696 z8765 [it], I will also x637 bring y935 z8686 it to pass; x935 I have purposed 3335 z8804 [it], I will also x637 do 6213 z8799 it.

 46:12 ¶ Hearken 8085 z8798 unto x413 me, ye stouthearted, 47 3820 that [are] far x7350 from y7350 righteousness: 6666 x4480

 46:13 I bring near 7126 z8765 my righteousness; 6666 it shall not x3808 be far off, 7368 z8799 and my salvation 8668 shall not x3808 tarry: 309 z8762 and I will place 5414 z8804 salvation 8668 in Zion 6726 for Israel 3478 my glory. 8597
