Jeremiah 10:14-16
Holman Christian Standard Bible
14 Everyone is stupid and ignorant.
Every goldsmith is put to shame
by his carved image,(A)
for his cast images are a lie;(B)
there is no breath in them.(C)
15 They are worthless, a work to be mocked.
At the time of their punishment
they will be destroyed.(D)
16 Jacob’s Portion[a] is not like these
because He is the One who formed all things.(E)
Israel is the tribe of His inheritance;(F)
Yahweh of Hosts is His name.(G)

Jeremiah 10:14-16
Lexham English Bible
14 Everyone[a] is stupid, without knowledge,[b]
every goldsmith is ashamed by his divine image,
for his cast image is an illusion,
and there is no breath in them.
15 They are vanity, a work of mockery,
at the time of their punishment, they will perish.
16 The portion of Jacob is not like these,
for he is the creator of everything,
and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance,
Yahweh of hosts is his name.
