They stoop and bow down together
    but are unable to transport their burden safely,
    and they too move forth into captivity.
Listen to me, O house of Jacob,
    all who remain of the house of Israel,
you who have been carried by me since your birth
    and borne by me from the womb.
Even when you reach old age
    I will still be the same.
Even when your hair is gray,
    I will still carry you.
I have made you and I will uphold you;
    I will carry you and save you.

you whom I have upheld since your birth,(D)
    and have carried(E) since you were born.(F)

    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.
