Isa 46
1 The Idols are Fallen
Bel fell, Dagon was broken. [
2became
1Their carved
images] for
the wild beasts; and cattle lift them being bound for a load, tiring, fainting,
2and hungering, not being able together; the ones who are not able to be delivered from war; but they themselves [
2as captives
1are led away].
3Hear me, O house of Jacob, and all the rest of Israel! O ones being lifted from
the belly, and being corrected from childhood
4until old age; I am, and until whenever you should become aged, I am. I endure you. I made, and I shall spare. I shall take up and I shall deliver you.
5To whom do you liken me? Behold cunningly contrive, O misleading ones!
6And the ones uniting in gold from a money bag, and silver in a yoke
balance scale shall establish by weight; and ones hiring a goldsmith made handmade
idols, and bowing they do obeisance to it.
7They lift it upon the shoulder, and they go. And if they put it upon its place, it remains. In no way shall it move, and who ever should yell to it, in no way shall it listen; [
4from
5hurt
1in no way
2shall it deliver
3him].
8 God's Counsel Will Stand
Remember these
things and moan! Change your mind, O ones being misled! Turn in heart!
9Remember the
things prior from the eon! For I am God, and there is no other besides me;
10announcing formerly the last
things before their taking place, and are completed. And I said, All my counsel will stand, and all as much as I have planned I will do;
11calling [
2from
3the east
1the winged creature], and from a land at a distance, for the
things which I have planned. And indeed I spoke, and indeed I led. I created and I did. I led him, and I prospered his way.
12Hear me, O ones destroying the heart! O ones far from righteousness.
13I brought near my righteousness, in no way
is it at a distance, and the deliverance the one by me, I will not be slow about; I have appointed in Zion deliverance to Israel for glory.
