46:1 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。
Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden to the weary beast.
46:2 都一同弯腰屈身，不能保全重驮，自己倒被掳去。
They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity.
46:3 雅各家，以色列家一切剩馀的，要听我言，你们自从生下，就蒙我保抱，自从出胎，便蒙我怀搋。
Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb:
46:4 直到你们年老，我仍这样，直到你们发白，我仍怀搋，我已造作，也必保抱，我必怀抱，也必拯救。
And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
46:5 你们将谁与我相比，与我同等，可以与我比较，使我们相同呢。
To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?
46:6 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。
They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire a goldsmith; and he maketh it a god: they fall down, yea, they worship.
46:7 他们将神像抬起，扛在肩上，安置在定处，他就站立，不离本位，人呼求他，他不能答应，也不能救人脱离患难。
They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he standeth; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble.
46:8 你们当想念这事，自己作大丈夫。悖逆的人哪，要心里思想。
Remember this, and shew yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors.
46:9 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。
Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,
46:10 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。
Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
46:11 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，也必作成。
Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.
46:12 你们这些心中顽梗，远离公义的，当听我言。
Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness:
46:13 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。
I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
