Jeremiah 10:3-5

3For the customs of the peoples are 12delusion; Because 3it is wood cut from the forest, The work of the hands of a craftsman with a cutting tool.4They 4decorate it with silver and with gold; They 5fasten it with nails and with hammers So that it will not totter.5Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field are they, And they 6cannot speak; They must be 7carried, Because they cannot walk! Do not fear them, For they 8can do no harm, Nor can they do any good.”
