Dead Idols and the Living God
1 Bel Is. 21:9; Jer. 50:2bows down, Nebo stoops;
Their idols were on the beasts and on the cattle.
Your carriages were heavily loaded,
Jer. 10:5A burden to the weary beast.
2 They stoop, they bow down together;
They could not deliver the burden,
Judg. 18:17, 18, 24; 2 Sam. 5:21; Jer. 48:7; Hos. 10:5, 6But have themselves gone into captivity.
3 "Listen to Me, O house of Jacob,
And all the remnant of the house of Israel,
Deut. 32:11; Ps. 71:6; Is. 63:9Who have been upheld byMe from birth,
Who have been carried from the womb:
4 Even to your old age, Mal. 3:6I am He,
And even to gray hairs Ps. 48:14I will carry you!
I have made, and I will bear;
Even I will carry, and will deliver you.
