Jeremiah 51:15-19

15He made the earth by his power, established the world by his wisdom, and spread out the heavens by his understanding.

16When he thunders, the waters in the heavens are tumultuous, and he causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain and brings the wind from his storehouses.

17Everyone is stupid and ignorant. Every goldsmith is put to shame by his carved image, for his cast images are a lie; there is no breath in them.

18They are worthless, a work to be mocked. At the time of their punishment they will be destroyed.

19Jacob’s Portion is not like these because he is the one who formed all things. Israel is the tribe of his inheritance; the Lord of Armies is his name.
