Isaiah 46:1-6 (New Century Version)
View In My Bible
1
Bel and Nebo bow down. Their idols are carried by animals. The statues are only heavy loads that must be carried; they only make people tired.
2
These gods will all bow down. They cannot save themselves but will all be carried away like prisoners.
3
"Family of Jacob, listen to me! All you people from Israel who are still alive, listen! I have carried you since you were born; I have taken care of you from your birth.
4
Even when you are old, I will be the same. Even when your hair has turned gray, I will take care of you. I made you and will take care of you. I will carry you and save you.
5
"Can you compare me to anyone? No one is equal to me or like me.
6
Some people are rich with gold and weigh their silver on the scales. They hire a goldsmith, and he makes it into a god. Then they bow down and worship it.
