(A)There is none like You, O Yahweh;
You are (B)great, and great is Your name in might.
(C)Who would not fear You, O (D)King of the nations?
Indeed it is Your due!
For among all the (E)wise men of the nations
And in all their kingdoms,
There is none like You.
But they are altogether (F)senseless and foolish;
They are in a discipline of [a]vanities—it is mere wood!
Beaten (G)silver is brought from (H)Tarshish,
And (I)gold from Uphaz,
The work of a craftsman and of the hands of a goldsmith;
Blue and purple are their clothing;
They are all the (J)work of wise craftsmen.
10 But Yahweh is the (K)true God;
He is the (L)living God and the (M)everlasting King.
At His wrath the (N)earth quakes,
And the nations cannot (O)endure His indignation.

  1. Jeremiah 10:8 Or idols

(A)There is none like you, O Lord;
    you are great, and your name is great in might.
(B)Who would not fear you, O King of the nations?
    For this is your due;
for among all the wise ones of the nations
    and in all their kingdoms
    there is none like you.
(C)They are both (D)stupid and foolish;
    the instruction of idols is but wood!
(E)Beaten silver is brought from (F)Tarshish,
    and gold from (G)Uphaz.
(H)They are the work of the craftsman and of the hands of the goldsmith;
    their clothing is violet and purple;
    (I)they are all the work of skilled men.
10 (J)But the Lord is the true God;
    (K)he is the living God and the everlasting King.
At his wrath the earth quakes,
    and the nations cannot endure his indignation.

No one is like you,(A) Lord;
    you are great,(B)
    and your name is mighty in power.
Who should not fear(C) you,
    King of the nations?(D)
    This is your due.
Among all the wise leaders of the nations
    and in all their kingdoms,
    there is no one like you.

They are all senseless(E) and foolish;(F)
    they are taught by worthless wooden idols.(G)
Hammered silver is brought from Tarshish(H)
    and gold from Uphaz.
What the craftsman and goldsmith have made(I)
    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,(J) the eternal King.(K)
When he is angry,(L) the earth trembles;(M)
    the nations cannot endure his wrath.(N)
