Jeremiah 10:8-10
Good News Translation
8 All of them are stupid and foolish.
What can they learn from wooden idols?[a]
9 Their idols are covered with silver from Spain
and with gold from Uphaz,
all the work of artists;
they are dressed in violet and purple cloth
woven by skilled weavers.
10 But you, Lord, are the true God,
you are the living God
and the eternal king.
When you are angry, the world trembles;
the nations cannot endure your anger.
