Bible verse
To whom will you liken Me or count Me equal? To whom will you compare Me, that we should be alike?
Isaiah 46:5 · BSB
The verses around it, from Isaiah 46.
1 Bel crouches; Nebo cowers. Their idols weigh down beasts and cattle. The images you carry are burdensome, a load to the weary animal.
2 The gods cower; they crouch together, unable to relieve the burden; but they themselves go into captivity.
3 “Listen to Me, O house of Jacob, all the remnant of the house of Israel, who have been sustained from the womb, carried along since birth.
4 Even to your old age, I will be the same, and I will bear you up when you turn gray. I have made you, and I will carry you; I will sustain you and deliver you.
5 To whom will you liken Me or count Me equal? To whom will you compare Me, that we should be alike?
6 They pour out their bags of gold and weigh out silver on scales; they hire a goldsmith to fashion it into a god, so they can bow down and worship.
7 They lift it to their shoulder and carry it along; they set it in its place, and there it stands, not budging from that spot. They cry out to it, but it does not answer; it saves no one from his troubles.
8 Remember this and be brave; take it to heart, you transgressors!
9 Remember what happened long ago, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me.
