Isaiah 46:5-13

5To whom will ye likenH1819 me, and make me equalH7737, and compareH4911 me, that we may be likeH1819? 6They lavishH2107 goldH2091 out of the bagH3599, and weighH8254 silverH3701 in the balanceH7070, and hireH7936 a goldsmithH6884; and he makethH6213 it a godH410: they fall downH5456, yea, they worshipH7812. 7They bearH5375 him upon the shoulderH3802, they carryH5445 him, and set him in his placeH3240, and he standethH5975; from his placeH4725 shall he not removeH4185: yea, one shall cryH6817 unto him, yet can he not answerH6030, nor saveH3467 him out of his troubleH6869. 8RememberH2142 this, and shew yourselves menH377: bring it againH7725 to mindH3820, O ye transgressorsH6586. 9RememberH2142 the former thingsH7223 of oldH5769: for I am GodH410, and there is none else; I am GodH430, and there is noneH657 likeH3644 me, 10DeclaringH5046 the endH319 from the beginningH7225, and from ancient timesH6924 the things that are not yet doneH6213, sayingH559, My counselH6098 shall standH6965, and I will doH6213 all my pleasureH2656: 11CallingH7121 a ravenous birdH5861 from the eastH4217, the manH376 that executeth my counselH6098 from a farH4801 countryH776: yea, I have spokenH1696 it, I will also bringH935 it to pass; I have purposedH3335 it, I will also doH6213 it.1

12HearkenH8085 unto me, ye stoutheartedH3820H47, that are far fromH7350 righteousnessH6666: 13I bring nearH7126 my righteousnessH6666; it shall not be far offH7368, and my salvationH8668 shall not tarryH309: and I will placeH5414 salvationH8668 in ZionH6726 for IsraelH3478 my gloryH8597.
