They stoop and bow down together;
    unable to rescue the burden,
    they themselves go off into captivity.(A)

“Listen(B) to me, you descendants of Jacob,
    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.

They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity.

Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb:

And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
