Isaiah 46:6 in Context — Isaiah 46

4 Y hasta la vejez yo mismo, y hasta las canas [os] soportaré yo: yo hice, yo llevaré, yo soportaré y guardaré.

5 ¿A quién me asemejáis, y me igualáis, y me comparáis, para que sea semejante?

6 Sacan oro del talego, y pesan plata con balanzas, alquilan un platero para hacer un dios de ello; humíllanse y adoran.

7 Echanselo sobre los hombros, llévanlo, y asiéntanlo en su lugar; allí se está, y no se mueve de su sitio. Danle voces, y tampoco responde, ni libra de la tribulación.

8 Acordaos de esto, y tened vergüenza; tornad en vosotros, prevaricadores.
