11 [a]Thus you shall say to them, “The (A)gods that did not make the heavens and the earth will (B)perish from the earth and from under [b]the heavens.”

12 It is (C)He who made the earth by His power,
Who (D)established the world by His wisdom;
And by His understanding He has (E)stretched out the heavens.
13 When He gives forth His (F)voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,
And He causes the (G)clouds to ascend from the end of the earth;
He makes lightning for the rain,
And brings out the (H)wind from His storehouses.

  2. Jeremiah 10:11 Or these

11 You are to say this to them:
“These gods, who did not make the heavens and the earth,
    will perish from the earth and from under the heavens.”[a]

12 But the one who made the earth by his power,
    established the world by his wisdom,
    and stretched out the heavens by his understanding—
13 he thunders, and the waters in the heavens roar.
He makes storm clouds rise from the ends of the earth.
He makes lightning for the rain,
and he brings out the wind from his warehouses.
