巴比伦之像不能自救

46 彼勒屈身,尼波弯腰;巴比伦的偶像驮在兽和牲畜上,他们所抬的如今成了重驮,使牲畜疲乏。 都一同弯腰屈身,不能保全重驮,自己倒被掳去。

神始终拯救其民

雅各家,以色列家一切余剩的,要听我言!你们自从生下,就蒙我保抱;自从出胎,便蒙我怀揣。 直到你们年老,我仍这样;直到你们发白,我仍怀揣。我已造做,也必保抱;我必怀抱,也必拯救。

神至圣无可比拟

“你们将谁与我相比,与我同等,可以与我比较,使我们相同呢? 那从囊中抓金子,用天平平银子的人,雇银匠制造神像,他们又俯伏,又叩拜。 他们将神像抬起,扛在肩上,安置在定处,它就站立,不离本位。人呼求它,它不能答应,也不能救人脱离患难。

耶和华所言必成

“你们当想念这事,自己做大丈夫!悖逆的人哪,要心里思想! 你们要追念上古的事,因为我是神,并无别神。我是神,再没有能比我的。 10 我从起初指明末后的事,从古时言明未成的事,说:‘我的筹算必立定,凡我所喜悦的,我必成就。’ 11 我召鸷鸟从东方来,召那成就我筹算的人从远方来。我已说出,也必成就;我已谋定,也必做成。

12 “你们这些心中顽梗,远离公义的,当听我言! 13 我使我的公义临近,必不远离,我的救恩必不迟延。我要为以色列我的荣耀,在锡安施行救恩。

Dead Idols and the Living God

46 Bel (A)bows down, Nebo stoops;
Their idols were on the beasts and on the cattle.
Your carriages were heavily loaded,
(B)A burden to the weary beast.
They stoop, they bow down together;
They could not deliver the burden,
(C)But have themselves gone into captivity.

“Listen to Me, O house of Jacob,
And all the remnant of the house of Israel,
(D)Who have been upheld by Me from [a]birth,
Who have been carried from the womb:
Even to your old age, (E)I am He,
And even to gray hairs (F)I will carry you!
I have made, and I will bear;
Even I will carry, and will deliver you.

“To(G) whom will you liken Me, and make Me equal
And compare Me, that we should be alike?
(H)They lavish gold out of the bag,
And weigh silver on the scales;
They hire a (I)goldsmith, and he makes it a god;
They prostrate themselves, yes, they worship.
(J)They bear it on the shoulder, they carry it
And set it in its place, and it stands;
From its place it shall not move.
Though (K)one cries out to it, yet it cannot answer
Nor save him out of his trouble.

“Remember this, and [b]show yourselves men;
(L)Recall to mind, O you transgressors.
(M)Remember the former things of old,
For I am God, and (N)there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like Me,
10 (O)Declaring the end from the beginning,
And from ancient times things that are not yet done,
Saying, (P)‘My counsel shall stand,
And I will do all My pleasure,’
11 Calling a bird of prey (Q)from the east,
The man (R)who executes My counsel, from a far country.
Indeed (S)I have spoken it;
I will also bring it to pass.
I have purposed it;
I will also do it.

12 “Listen to Me, you (T)stubborn-hearted,
(U)Who are far from righteousness:
13 (V)I bring My righteousness near, it shall not be far off;
My salvation (W)shall not [c]linger.
And I will place (X)salvation in Zion,
For Israel My glory.
