Jeremiah 10:14-16
New King James Version
14 (A)Everyone is (B)dull-hearted, without knowledge;
(C)Every metalsmith is put to shame by an image;
(D)For his molded image is falsehood,
And there is no breath in them.
15 They are futile, a work of errors;
In the time of their punishment they shall perish.
16 (E)The Portion of Jacob is not like them,
For He is the Maker of all things,
And (F)Israel is the tribe of His inheritance;
(G)The Lord of hosts is His name.
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.
