en_cepher - Isa 46 - Ozzuu Bible

¹ BA`AL bows down, Nevu stoops, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden to the weary beast.

² They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity.

³ Hearken unto me, O house of Ya`aqov, and all the remnant of the house of Yashar'el, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb:

⁴ And even to your old age I am he; and even to gray hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.

⁵ To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?

⁶ They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire a goldsmith; and he makes it an el: they fall down, yea, they worship.

⁷ They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he stands; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble.

⁸ Remember this, and show yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors.

⁹ Remember the former things of old: for I am El, and there is none else; I am Elohiym, 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 ravenous bird from the east, the man that executes my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.

¹² Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness:

¹³ I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my yeshu`ah shall not tarry: and I will place yeshu`ah in Tsiyon for Yashar'el my glory.
