Urdu Bible (UGV) 2019 (ہولی بائبل کا اردو جیو ورژن)
وہ اُسے اپنے کندھوں پر رکھ کر اِدھر اُدھر لئے پھرتے ہیں، پھر اُسے دوبارہ اُس کی جگہ پر رکھ دیتے ہیں۔ وہاں وہ کھڑا رہتا ہے اور ذرا بھی نہیں ہلتا۔ لوگ چلّا کر اُس سے فریاد کرتے ہیں، لیکن وہ جواب نہیں دیتا، دعاگو کو مصیبت سے نہیں بچاتا۔
What Does This Mean?
This verse describes people carrying an idol and setting it in place. The idol cannot move or help those who worship it in times of trouble. Isaiah is speaking, warning against idol worship.
Explained for Children
Imagine you have a toy that you carry around. You place it on a shelf and pretend it can protect you. But it can't move or speak to help you. This verse tells us that idols are like those toys, not real helpers.
Historical Background
Isaiah wrote this around 700 BC. He was speaking to the people of Israel who sometimes worshipped idols. This was a common practice in the ancient Near East, where gods were often represented by statues.
Living It Out Today
Think of a time when you relied on something or someone to solve your problems but they couldn't. This verse reminds us to look to God for help, not to things or people who can't actually help.
