Бог Израиля и идолы
10 Слушай, дом Израиля, что говорит тебе Господь.
2 Так говорит Господь:
– Не учитесь путям других народов,
не бойтесь небесных знамений,
которых другие народы боятся.
3 Обычаи народов ничтожны.
Срубают в лесу дерево,
ремесленник обрабатывает его резцом,
4 украшает серебром и золотом,
крепит его молотком и гвоздями,
чтобы он не качался.
5 Эти идолы, как пугала на бахче, –
не могут говорить;
их нужно носить –
они не умеют ходить.
Не бойтесь их,
ведь они не в силах причинить вам зла,
но и добра сделать не могут.
6 – Нет подобного Тебе, о Господь,
Ты велик, и Твое имя могущественно.
7 Кто не чтит Тебя, Царь народов?
Ведь Ты заслуживаешь этого.
Между всеми мудрецами народов
и во всех их царствах
нет подобного Тебе.
8 Эти народы безрассудны и глупы:
они учатся у бестолковой деревяшки![a]
9 Серебро чеканное привозится из Таршиша,
а золото – из Уфаза.
Поделки ремесленника и плавильщика
облачат затем в голубое и пурпурное одеяние;
все эти истуканы – изделия мастеров.
10 Но Господь – это истинный Бог;
Он – Бог живой и Царь вечный.
Когда Он разгневан, дрожит земля,
и народы не в силах вынести Его ярость.
11 – Скажите им вот что:
Боги, которые не создали неба и земли, исчезнут с лица земли и из-под небес[b].
12 А Бог создал землю Своим могуществом,
утвердил мир Своей мудростью,
распростер небеса Своим разумом.
13 Когда Он возвышает голос, шумят небесные воды;
Он поднимает тучи с края земли.
Он посылает молнии среди ливня
и выводит ветер из Своих кладовых.
14 Все люди глупы и нет у них знания;
всякий плавильщик позорит себя своими идолами.
Его изваяния лживы, и нет в них дыхания.
15 Они ничтожны и смешны;
пробьет их час, и они погибнут.
16 Но Он, Удел Иакова, не таков, как они,
потому что Он – Творец всего,
и Израиль – народ Его наследия:
Господь Сил, вот Его имя.
Предстоящее изгнание
17 Собирайте пожитки, чтобы покинуть страну,
живущие в осаде.
18 Ведь так говорит Господь:
– На этот раз Я изгоняю тех,
кто живет в стране;
Я пошлю им несчастье,
чтобы они были схвачены их врагами.
19 Горе мне в моем сокрушении!
Моя рана неизлечима!
Но я сказал себе:
«Воистину, это моя скорбь;
я должен ее нести».
20 Мой шатер разрушен,
все веревки его разорваны.
Сыновья мои от меня ушли,
нет их больше;
некому больше поставить мой шатер
и повесить его завесы.
21 Пастухи безрассудны
и не взывают к Господу,
поэтому они не имеют успеха ни в чем,
и все их стада рассеяны.
22 Слышите! Слух несется:
великое волнение с севера!
Оно превратит города Иудеи в пустыни,
в логово шакалов.
Молитва Иеремии
23 Знаю, Господи,
человек не властен над жизнью,
и не во власти идущего
дать направление шагам.
24 Наставляй меня, Господи,
но только по справедливости,
не во гневе,
чтобы не погубить меня.
25 Излей Свой гнев на народы, не знающие Тебя,
на народы, не призывающие Твоего имени,
за то что они уничтожили Иакова:
уничтожили и погубили его
и разорили его дома.
Jeremiah 10
Living Bible
Jeremiah 10
Living Bible
10 Hear the word of the Lord, O Israel:
2-3 Don’t act like the people who make horoscopes and try to read their fate and future in the stars! Don’t be frightened by predictions such as theirs, for it is all a pack of lies. Their ways are futile and foolish. They cut down a tree and carve an idol; 4 they decorate it with gold and silver and fasten it securely in place with hammer and nails so that it won’t fall over. 5 And there stands their god like a helpless scarecrow in a garden! It cannot speak, and it must be carried, for it cannot walk. Don’t be afraid of such a god, for it can neither harm nor help nor do you any good.
6 O Lord, there is no other god like you. For you are great, and your name is full of power. 7 Who would not fear you, O King of nations? (And that title belongs to you alone!) Among all the wise men of the earth and in all the kingdoms of the world there isn’t anyone like you.
8 The wisest of men who worship idols are altogether stupid and foolish. 9 They bring beaten sheets of silver from Tarshish and gold from Uphaz and give them to skillful goldsmiths who make their idols; then they clothe these gods in royal purple robes that expert tailors make.
10 But the Lord is the only true God, the living God, the everlasting King. The whole earth shall tremble at his anger; the world shall hide before his displeasure.
11 Say this to those who worship other gods: Your so-called gods, who have not made the heavens and earth, shall vanish from the earth. 12 But our God formed the earth by his power and wisdom, and by his intelligence he hung the stars in space and stretched out the heavens. 13 It is his voice that echoes in the thunder of the storm clouds. He causes mist to rise upon the earth; he sends the lightning and brings the rain, and from his treasuries he brings the wind.
14 But foolish men without knowledge of God bow before their idols. It is a shameful business that these men are in, for what they make are frauds, gods without life or power in them. 15 All are worthless, silly; they will be crushed when their makers perish. 16 But the God of Jacob is not like these foolish idols. He is the Creator of all, and Israel is his chosen nation. The Lord Almighty is his name.
17 Pack your bags, he says. Get ready now to leave; the siege will soon begin. 18 For suddenly I’ll fling you from this land and pour great troubles down; at last you shall feel my wrath.
19 Desperate is my wound. My grief is great. My sickness is incurable, but I must bear it. 20 My home is gone; my children have been taken away, and I will never see them again. There is no one left to help me rebuild my home. 21 The shepherds of my people have lost their senses; they no longer follow God nor ask his will. Therefore they perish, and their flocks are scattered. 22 Listen! Hear the terrible sound of great armies coming from the north. The cities of Judah shall become dens of jackals.
23 O Lord, I know it is not within the power of man to map his life and plan his course— 24 so you correct me, Lord; but please be gentle. Don’t do it in your anger, for I would die. 25 Pour out your fury on the nations who don’t obey the Lord, for they have destroyed Israel and made a wasteland of this entire country.

Living God or human handiwork
10 Listen to the word that the Lord has spoken to you, people of Israel!
2 The Lord proclaims:
Don’t follow the ways of the nations
or be troubled by signs in the sky,
even though the nations are troubled by them.
3 The rituals of the nations are hollow:
a tree from the forest is chopped down
and shaped by the craftsman’s tools.
4 It’s overlaid with silver and gold,
and fastened securely with hammer and nails
so it won’t fall over.
5 They are no different than a scarecrow
in a cucumber patch:
they can’t speak;
they must be carried
because they can’t walk.
Don’t be afraid of them,
because they can’t do harm or good.
6 Lord, no one is like you!
You are great,
and great is your mighty name.
7 Who wouldn’t fear you,
king of the nations?
That is your due;
among all the wise of the nations
and in all their countries,
there is no one like you!
8 But they are both foolish and silly;
they offer nothing
because they are mere wood.
9 Covered with silver from Tarshish
and gold from Uphaz,
they are the work of a craftsman
and the hands of a goldsmith.
Clothed in blue and purple,
all of them nothing more than the work of artisans.
10 But the Lord is the true God!
He’s the living God and the everlasting king!
When he’s angry, the earth quakes;
the nations can’t endure his rage.
11 Tell them this: The gods who didn’t make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under the heavens.[a]
12 But God made the earth by his might;
he shaped the world by his wisdom,
crafted the skies by his knowledge.
13 At the sound of his voice,
the heavenly waters roar.
He raises the clouds from the ends of the earth.
He sends the lightning with the rain,
the wind from his treasuries.
14 Everyone is too foolish to understand;
every goldsmith is dishonored by his idols,
for their images are shams;
they aren’t alive.
15 They are a delusion, a charade;
at the appointed time they will vanish!
16 Jacob’s portion is utterly different
because God has formed all things,
including Israel, his very own people—
the Lord of heavenly forces is his name!
Get ready for exile!
17 Pack your bags and get ready to leave,
you who live under siege.[b]
18 The Lord proclaims:
I’m going to eject those who live in the land at this time;
I will badger them until they leave.[c]
19 How terrible for me, due to my injury;
my wound is terrible.
Yet I said to myself:
This is my sickness,
and I must bear it.
20 But now my tent is destroyed;
all its ropes are cut,
and my children are gone for good.
There’s no one left to set up my tent frame
and to attach the fabric.
21 The shepherd kings have lost their senses
and don’t seek answers from the Lord.
That is why they have failed
and their flock is scattered.
22 Listen! The sound is getting louder,
a mighty uproar from the land of the north;
it will reduce the towns of Judah to ruins,
a den for wild dogs.
23 I know, Lord, that our lives are not our own,
that we’re not able to direct our paths.
24 So correct me, Lord, but with justice,
not in your anger,
or else you will reduce me to nothing.
25 Pour out your wrath on the nations
that ignore you
and on the people
who don’t call on you,
since they have devoured Jacob;
they have devoured him completely
and ruined his country.

New International Version

New International Version
God and Idols(A)
10 Hear what the Lord says to you, people of Israel. 2 This is what the Lord says:
“Do not learn the ways of the nations(B)
or be terrified by signs(C) in the heavens,
though the nations are terrified by them.
3 For the practices of the peoples are worthless;
they cut a tree out of the forest,
and a craftsman(D) shapes it with his chisel.(E)
4 They adorn it with silver(F) and gold;
they fasten it with hammer and nails
so it will not totter.(G)
5 Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field,
their idols cannot speak;(H)
they must be carried
because they cannot walk.(I)
Do not fear them;
they can do no harm(J)
nor can they do any good.”(K)
6 No one is like you,(L) Lord;
you are great,(M)
and your name is mighty in power.
7 Who should not fear(N) you,
King of the nations?(O)
This is your due.
Among all the wise leaders of the nations
and in all their kingdoms,
there is no one like you.
8 They are all senseless(P) and foolish;(Q)
they are taught by worthless wooden idols.(R)
9 Hammered silver is brought from Tarshish(S)
and gold from Uphaz.
What the craftsman and goldsmith have made(T)
is then dressed in blue and purple—
all made by skilled workers.
10 But the Lord is the true God;
he is the living God,(U) the eternal King.(V)
When he is angry,(W) the earth trembles;(X)
the nations cannot endure his wrath.(Y)
11 “Tell them this: ‘These gods, who did not make the heavens and the earth, will perish(Z) from the earth and from under the heavens.’”[a]
12 But God made(AA) the earth(AB) by his power;
he founded the world by his wisdom(AC)
and stretched out the heavens(AD) by his understanding.
13 When he thunders,(AE) the waters in the heavens roar;
he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth.
He sends lightning(AF) with the rain(AG)
and brings out the wind from his storehouses.(AH)
14 Everyone is senseless and without knowledge;
every goldsmith is shamed(AI) by his idols.
The images he makes are a fraud;(AJ)
they have no breath in them.
15 They are worthless,(AK) the objects of mockery;
when their judgment comes, they will perish.
16 He who is the Portion(AL) of Jacob is not like these,
for he is the Maker of all things,(AM)
including Israel, the people of his inheritance(AN)—
the Lord Almighty is his name.(AO)
Coming Destruction
17 Gather up your belongings(AP) to leave the land,
you who live under siege.
18 For this is what the Lord says:
“At this time I will hurl(AQ) out
those who live in this land;
I will bring distress(AR) on them
so that they may be captured.”
19 Woe to me because of my injury!
My wound(AS) is incurable!
Yet I said to myself,
“This is my sickness, and I must endure(AT) it.”
20 My tent(AU) is destroyed;
all its ropes are snapped.
My children are gone from me and are no more;(AV)
no one is left now to pitch my tent
or to set up my shelter.
21 The shepherds(AW) are senseless(AX)
and do not inquire of the Lord;(AY)
so they do not prosper(AZ)
and all their flock is scattered.(BA)
22 Listen! The report is coming—
a great commotion from the land of the north!(BB)
It will make the towns of Judah desolate,(BC)
a haunt of jackals.(BD)
Jeremiah’s Prayer
23 Lord, I know that people’s lives are not their own;
it is not for them to direct their steps.(BE)
24 Discipline me, Lord, but only in due measure—
not in your anger,(BF)
or you will reduce me to nothing.(BG)
25 Pour out your wrath on the nations(BH)
that do not acknowledge you,
on the peoples who do not call on your name.(BI)
For they have devoured(BJ) Jacob;
they have devoured him completely
and destroyed his homeland.(BK)
