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
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)

instructed by worthless idols
made of wood!

is clothed in blue and purple,

The earth quakes at his wrath,(I)
and the nations cannot endure his fury.
