46 1 The destruction of Babylon and of their idols. 3 He calleth the Jews to the consideration of his works.
1 Bel is bowed down: [a]Nebo is fallen: their idols were upon their [b]beasts, and upon the cattle: they which did bear you, were laden with a weary burden.
2 [c]They are bowed down, and fallen together, for they could not rid them of the burden, and their [d]soul is gone into captivity.
