Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that corrupt themselves! They have forsaken Jehovah; they have despised the Holy One of Israel; they are turned away backward.

Bel bows down, Nebo stoops, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy laden; they are a burden to the weary beast.

When the LORD now shall bring thee to rest; from the travail, fear, and hard bondage that thou wast laden withal.

But thou hast laden me with thy sins, and wearied me with thine ungodliness.
