Isaiah 46:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 [a]They are bowed down, and fallen together, for they could not rid them of the burden, and their [b]soul is gone into captivity.
3 Hear ye me, O house of Jacob, and all that remain of the house of Israel, which are [c]born of me from the womb, and brought up of me from the birth.
4 Therefore unto [d]old age, I the same, even I will bear you until the hoary hairs: I have made you: I will also bear you, and I will carry you, and I will deliver you.

Isaiah 46:2-4
New International Version
2 They stoop and bow down together;
unable to rescue the burden,
they themselves go off into captivity.(A)
3 “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)
4 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.
