Jeremiah 10:6-10

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁶ There is none like you, O Lord;
    you are great, and your name is great in might.^(A)
7 Who would not fear you, O King of the nations?
    For that is your due;
among all the wise ones of the nations
    and in all their kingdoms
    there is no one like you.^(B)
8 They are both stupid and foolish;
    the instruction given by idols
    is no better than wood!^[a](C)
9 Beaten silver is brought from Tarshish
    and gold from Uphaz.
They are the work of the artisan and of the hands of the goldsmith;
    their clothing is blue and purple;
    they are all the product of skilled workers.^(D)
10 But the Lord is the true God;
    he is the living God and the everlasting King.
At his wrath the earth quakes,
    and the nations cannot endure his indignation.^[b](E)
