Isaiah 46:5-7
Complete Jewish Bible
5 To whom will you liken me and equate me?
With whom will you compare me, as if we were similar?”
6 They squander the gold from their bags
and weigh silver on a scale;
they hire a goldsmith to make a god,
before which they fall down and worship!
7 It is borne on shoulders and carried,
then set in its place; and there it stands.
From its place it does not move.
If one cries to it, it cannot answer
or save anyone from his troubles.
Isaiah 46:5-7
New International Version
5 “With whom will you compare me or count me equal?
To whom will you liken me that we may be compared?(A)
6 Some pour out gold from their bags
and weigh out silver on the scales;
they hire a goldsmith(B) to make it into a god,
and they bow down and worship it.(C)
7 They lift it to their shoulders and carry(D) it;
they set it up in its place, and there it stands.
From that spot it cannot move.(E)
Even though someone cries out to it, it cannot answer;(F)
it cannot save(G) them from their troubles.
