Jeremiah 51:17-19
Legacy Standard Bible
17 (A)All mankind is senseless, devoid of knowledge;
Every goldsmith is put to shame by his graven image,
For his molten images are (B)a lie,
And there is no breath in them.
18 They are (C)vanity, a work of mockery;
In the time of their punishment they will perish.
19 The (D)portion of Jacob is not like these;
For the [a]Maker of all is He,
And of the [b]tribe of His inheritance;
(E)Yahweh of hosts is His name.

Jeremiah 51:17-19
New International Version
17 “Everyone is senseless and without knowledge;
every goldsmith is shamed by his idols.
The images he makes are a fraud;(A)
they have no breath in them.
18 They are worthless,(B) the objects of mockery;
when their judgment comes, they will perish.
19 He who is the Portion(C) of Jacob is not like these,
for he is the Maker of all things,
including the people of his inheritance(D)—
the Lord Almighty is his name.
