Jeremiah 10:3-10

3For the customsH2708 of the peoplesH5971 are vanityH1892; for one cutteth a treeH6086 out of the forestH3293, the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of the workman with the axe. 4They deck it with silverH3701 and with goldH2091; they fasten it with nailsH4548 and with hammersH4717, that it move not. 5They are like a palm-tree, of turned workH4749, and speakH1696 not: they must needs be borneH5375, because they cannot goH3190. Be not afraidH3372 of them; for they cannot do evilH7489, neither is it in them to do goodH3190.

6There is none like unto thee, O Jehovah; thou art greatH1419, and thy nameH8034 is greatH1419 in might. 7Who should not fearH3372 thee, O KingH4428 of the nationsH1471? for to thee doth it appertain; forasmuch as among all the wiseH2450 men of the nationsH1471, and in all their royal estate, there is none like unto thee. 8But they are together brutish and foolish: the instruction of idols! it is but a stock. 9There is silverH3701 beaten into plates, which is broughtH935 from TarshishH8659, and goldH2091 from UphazH210, the workH4639 of the artificer and of the handsH3027 of the goldsmithH6884; blueH8504 and purpleH713 for their clothingH3830; they are all the workH4639 of skilful men. 10But Jehovah is the true GodH430; he is the living GodH430, and an everlasting KingH4428: at his wrathH7110 the earthH776 trembleth, and the nationsH1471 are not able to abide his indignationH2195.
