Jeremiah 10:6-10
New King James Version
6 Inasmuch as there is none (A)like You, O Lord
(You are great, and Your name is great in might),
7 (B)Who would not fear You, O King of the nations?
For this is Your rightful due.
For (C)among all the wise men of the nations,
And in all their kingdoms,
There is none like You.
8 But they are altogether (D)dull-hearted and foolish;
A wooden idol is a [a]worthless doctrine.
9 Silver is beaten into plates;
It is brought from Tarshish,
And (E)gold from Uphaz,
The work of the craftsman
And of the hands of the metalsmith;
Blue and purple are their clothing;
They are all (F)the work of skillful men.
10 But the Lord is the true God;
He is (G)the living God and the (H)everlasting King.
At His wrath the earth will tremble,
And the nations will not be able to endure His indignation.
