Their images are consigned to the beasts and the cattle.
The things that you carry are burdensome,
A load for the weary beast.

Their images are consigned to the beasts and the cattle.
The things that you carry are burdensome,

Бел хилиться, Нево валиться. Божищ їхніх кладуть на скот та на худобу, і їх несе утомлена скотина як навантажений тягар.
They stooped over, they have bowed down together;
They could not rescue the burden,
But have themselves gone into captivity.
They could not rescue the burden,
But have themselves gone into captivity.

“Listen to Me, O house of Jacob,
And all the remnant of the house of Israel,
You who have been borne by Me from birth
And have been carried from the womb;
And all the remnant of the house of Israel,
You who have been borne by Me from birth
And have been carried from the womb;
Послухай мене, доме Якова, увесь останку дому Ізраїля, що його я носив уже від материнського лона, що ним я піклувався вже від утроби!
Even to your old age I will be the same,
And even to your graying years I will bear you!
I have done it, and I will carry you;
And I will bear you and I will deliver you.
And even to your graying years I will bear you!
I have done it, and I will carry you;
And I will bear you and I will deliver you.
До старости вашої я буду той самий, до сивини я буду вас носити. Я вже робив так, я носив вас, і носитиму далі, я вас урятую.
“To whom would you liken Me
And make Me equal and compare Me,
That we would be alike?
And make Me equal and compare Me,
That we would be alike?
Кому ви хочете мене уподобити, прирівняти? На кого хочете, щоб я скидався, був схожий?
“Those who lavish gold from the purse
And weigh silver on the scale
Hire a goldsmith, and he makes it into a god;
They bow down, indeed they worship it.

Вони з гамана золото висипають, важать вагою срібло, золотаря наймають, щоб з того зробив бога, щоб перед ним поклони бити, ставати навколішки.
“They lift it upon the shoulder and carry it;
They set it in its place and it stands there.
It does not move from its place.
Though one may cry to it, it cannot answer;
It cannot deliver him from his distress.

Беруть його на плечі, носять його, ставлять на його місці, і він стоїть, не зрушиться з свого місця; кричать до нього, а він їм не відповідає, в біді не допомагає.
“Remember this, and be assured;
Recall it to mind, you transgressors.

Згадайте це й зрозумійте, до серця, грішники, прийміть!
“Remember the former things long past,
For I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is no one like Me,
For I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is no one like Me,
Згадайте давне споконвіку, що я — Бог, і іншого немає, рівні мені немає!

And from ancient times things which have not been done,
Saying, ‘My purpose will be established,
And I will accomplish all My good pleasure’;

Я оповіщаю вже спочатку те, що буде: далеко наперед, що ще не сталось. Я кажу: Думка моя здійсниться, я виконаю все, що мені довподоби.
Calling a bird of prey from the east,
The man of My purpose from a far country.
Truly I have spoken; truly I will bring it to pass.
I have planned it, surely I will do it.

Я кличу птаха-хижака зі сходу, мужа з далекої країни, якого я призначив. Я це сказав і це вчиню, я це призначив і це зроблю.
“Listen to Me, you stubborn-minded,
Who are far from righteousness.
Who are far from righteousness.
Слухайте мене, ви, тугі серцем, ви, що далекі від спасіння!
