Jeremiah 10:1-9
1HearH8085 the wordH1697 whichH834 the LordH3068 speaksH1696 to you, houseH1004 of IsraelH3478. 2ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “1Do not learnH3925 the wayH1870 of the nationsH1471, And do not be terrifiedH2865 by the signsH226 of the heavensH8064, AlthoughH3588 the nationsH1471 are terrifiedH2865 by them;3For the customsH2708 of the peoplesH5971 are 2futileH1892; For 3it is woodH6086 cutH3772 from the forestH3293, The workH4639 of the handsH3027 of a craftsmanH2796 with a cuttingH4621 toolH4621.4They 4decorateH3302 the idol with silverH3701 and goldH2091; They 5fastenH2388 it with nailsH4548 and hammersH4717 So that it will not totterH6328.5They are like a scarecrowH8560 in a cucumberH4750 fieldH4750, And they 6cannotH3808 speakH1696; They mustH5375 be 7carriedH5375, BecauseH3588 they cannotH3808 walkH6805! Do not fearH3372 them, For they 8can doH7489 noH3808 harmH7489, NorH1571H369 can they doH3190 anyH1571 goodH3190.”
69ThereH369 isH369 noneH369 likeH3644 You, LordH3068; You are 10greatH1419, and Your nameH8034 is greatH1419 in mightH1369.711WhoH4310 would not fearH3372 You, O 12KingH4428 of the nationsH1471? For it is Your dueH2969! For among allH3605 the 13wiseH2450 menH2450 of the nationsH1471 And in allH3605 their kingdomsH4438, ThereH369 isH369 noneH369 likeH3644 You.8But they areH1197 altogetherH259 14stupidH1197 and foolishH3688; The instructionH4148 from idolsH1892 is nothing but woodH6086!9BeatenH7554 15silverH3701 is broughtH935 from 16TarshishH8659, And 17goldH2091 from UphazH210, The workH4639 of a craftsmanH2796 and of the handsH3027 of a goldsmithH6884; Their clothingH3830 is of violetH8504 and purpleH713; They are allH3605 the 18workH4639 of skilledH2450 peopleH2450.
