Jeremiah 16:19-21
New American Standard Bible 1995
19 O Lord, my (A)strength and my stronghold,
And my (B)refuge in the day of distress,
To You the (C)nations will come
From the ends of the earth and say,
“Our fathers have inherited nothing but (D)falsehood,
Futility and [a](E)things of no profit.”
20 Can man make gods for himself?
Yet they are (F)not gods!
21 “Therefore behold, I am going to make them know—
This time I will (G)make them know
My [b]power and My might;
And they shall (H)know that My name is the Lord.”

Futility and [a](E)things of no profit.”
