Jeremiah 51:15-19
15He hath madeH6213 the earthH776 by his powerH3581, he hath establishedH3559 the worldH8398 by his wisdomH2451, and hath stretched outH5186 the heavenH8064 by his understandingH8394.
16When he utterethH5414 his voiceH6963, there is a multitudeH1995 of watersH4325 in the heavensH8064; and he causeth the vapoursH5387 to ascendH5927 from the endsH7097 of the earthH776: he makethH6213 lightningsH1300 with rainH4306, and bringeth forthH3318 the windH7307 out of his treasuresH214.1
17Every manH120 is brutishH1197 by his knowledgeH1847; every founderH6884 is confoundedH3001 by the graven imageH6459: for his molten imageH5262 is falsehoodH8267, and there is no breathH7307 in them.2
18They are vanityH1892, the workH4639 of errorsH8595: in the timeH6256 of their visitationH6486 they shall perishH6.
19The portionH2506 of JacobH3290 is not like them; for he is the formerH3335 of all things: and Israel is the rodH7626 of his inheritanceH5159: YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635 is his nameH8034.
