Jeremiah 10:4-9
New International Version
4 They adorn it with silver(A) and gold;
they fasten it with hammer and nails
so it will not totter.(B)
5 Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field,
their idols cannot speak;(C)
they must be carried
because they cannot walk.(D)
Do not fear them;
they can do no harm(E)
nor can they do any good.”(F)

King James Version
Jeremiah 10:4-9
King James Version
4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
5 They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.
6 Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O Lord; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.
7 Who would not fear thee, O King of nations? for to thee doth it appertain: forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like unto thee.
8 But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities.
9 Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple is their clothing: they are all the work of cunning men.

and weigh out silver on the scales;
they hire a goldsmith(A) to make it into a god,
and they bow down and worship it.(B)
7 They lift it to their shoulders and carry(C) it;
they set it up in its place, and there it stands.
From that spot it cannot move.(D)
Even though someone cries out to it, it cannot answer;(E)
it cannot save(F) them from their troubles.

Acts 19:24-28
New International Version
24 A silversmith named Demetrius, who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought in a lot of business for the craftsmen there. 25 He called them together, along with the workers in related trades, and said: “You know, my friends, that we receive a good income from this business.(A) 26 And you see and hear how this fellow Paul has convinced and led astray large numbers of people here in Ephesus(B) and in practically the whole province of Asia.(C) He says that gods made by human hands are no gods at all.(D) 27 There is danger not only that our trade will lose its good name, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be discredited; and the goddess herself, who is worshiped throughout the province of Asia and the world, will be robbed of her divine majesty.”
28 When they heard this, they were furious and began shouting: “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”(E)

24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;
25 Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.
26 Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:
27 So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.
28 And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.

New International Version
8 She has not acknowledged(A) that I was the one
who gave her the grain, the new wine and oil,(B)
who lavished on her the silver and gold(C)—
which they used for Baal.(D)
9 “Therefore I will take away my grain(E) when it ripens,
and my new wine(F) when it is ready.
I will take back my wool and my linen,
intended to cover her naked body.
10 So now I will expose(G) her lewdness
before the eyes of her lovers;(H)
no one will take her out of my hands.(I)
11 I will stop(J) all her celebrations:(K)
her yearly festivals, her New Moons,
her Sabbath days—all her appointed festivals.(L)
12 I will ruin her vines(M) and her fig trees,(N)
which she said were her pay from her lovers;(O)
I will make them a thicket,(P)
and wild animals will devour them.(Q)
13 I will punish her for the days
she burned incense(R) to the Baals;(S)
she decked herself with rings and jewelry,(T)
and went after her lovers,(U)
but me she forgot,(V)”
declares the Lord.(W)

8 For she did not know that I gave her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver and gold, which they prepared for Baal.
9 Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recover my wool and my flax given to cover her nakedness.
10 And now will I discover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of mine hand.
11 I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts.
12 And I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards that my lovers have given me: and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them.
13 And I will visit upon her the days of Baalim, wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgat me, saith the Lord.
