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,

and even to hoar hairs will I carry you:
I have made, and I will bear;
even I will carry, and will deliver you.

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.
