False Gods Are Useless

46 Bel bows down and Nebo bends low [C important gods of Babylon].
    Their ·idols [images] ·are carried by animals [L belong to beasts and cattle].
The statues are only heavy loads
    carried by tired animals.
·These gods will all ·bow [stoop and bow] down.
    They cannot save themselves
but will all be carried away ·like prisoners [into captivity].

“·Family [L House] of Jacob, listen to me!
    All ·you people from Israel who are still alive [the remnant of the house of Israel], listen!
I have carried you since you were born;
    I have taken care of you from ·your birth [L the womb].
