5 To whom will you liken Me, and make Me equal,and compare Me that we may be alike?
6 They lavish gold out of the bag,and weigh silver on the scales;they hire a goldsmith, and he makes it a god;they fall down and worship it.
7 They lift it on the shoulder, they carry it,and they set it in its place, and it stands;from its place it does not move.If one shall cry to it, it cannot answernor save him out of his trouble.
8 Remember this, and show yourselves men;bring it to mind again, O transgressors.
9 Remember the former things of old,for I am God, and there is no other;I am God, and there is no one like Me,
10 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 good pleasure,”
11 calling a ravenous bird from the east,the man who executes My counsel from a far country.Indeed, I have spoken it; I will also bring it to pass.I have purposed it; I will also do it.
