These false gods will all bow down.
    They cannot save themselves.
    They will all be carried away like prisoners.

“Family of Jacob, listen to me!
    All you people from Israel who are still alive, listen!
I have carried you since you were born.
    I have taken care of you from your birth.
Even when you are old, I will take care of you.
    Even when your hair has turned gray, I will take care of you.
I made you and will take care of you.
    I will carry you, and I will save you.

    all the remnant(C) of the people of Israel,
you whom I have upheld since your birth,(D)
    and have carried(E) since you were born.(F)
Even to your old age and gray hairs(G)
    I am he,(H) I am he who will sustain you.
I have made you and I will carry you;
    I will sustain(I) you and I will rescue you.
