Jeremiah 51:17-19
New King James Version
17 (A)Everyone is dull-hearted, without knowledge;
Every metalsmith is put to shame by the carved image;
(B)For his molded image is falsehood,
And there is no breath in them.
18 They are futile, a work of errors;
In the time of their punishment they shall perish.
19 The Portion of Jacob is not like them,
For He is the Maker of all things;
And Israel is the tribe of His inheritance.
The Lord of hosts is His name.
Jeremiah 51:17-19
Lexham English Bible
17 All humankind turns out to be stupid,
without knowledge.
Every goldsmith is put to shame
by the divine image.
For his cast image is a lie,
and there is no breath in them.
18 They are worthless,
a work of mockery.
At the time of their punishment,
they will perish.
19 The portion of Jacob is not like these,
for he is the creator of everything,[a]
and the tribe of his inheritance.
Yahweh of hosts is his name.
