Jeremiah 10:4-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
4 adorned with silver and gold.
With nails and hammers they are fastened,
so they do not fall.(A)
5 Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field are they,
they cannot speak;
They must be carried about,
for they cannot walk.
Do not fear them, they can do no harm,
neither can they do good.(B)
6 No one is like you, Lord,
you are great,
great and mighty is your name.(C)
