Isaiah 46:1-2
International Standard Version

God is Unique and Eternal

46 “Bel[a] bows down, Nebo[b] stoops low.
    Their idols are on beasts, on[c] livestock.
        Your loads are more burdensome than their reports.[d]
2 They stoop, they bow down together,
    and[e] they are not able to rescue the burden,
        but they themselves go off[f] into captivity.
