Jeremiah 51:17-19
World English Bible
17 “Every man has become brutish without knowledge.
Every goldsmith is disappointed by his image;
for his molten image is falsehood,
and there is no breath in them.
18 They are vanity,
a work of delusion.
In the time of their visitation, they will perish.
19 The portion of Jacob is not like these,
for he is the former of all things;
including the tribe of his inheritance:
Yahweh of Armies is his name.
Jeremiah 51:17-19
New Living Translation
17 The whole human race is foolish and has no knowledge!
The craftsmen are disgraced by the idols they make,
for their carefully shaped works are a fraud.
These idols have no breath or power.
18 Idols are worthless; they are ridiculous lies!
On the day of reckoning they will all be destroyed.
19 But the God of Israel[a] is no idol!
He is the Creator of everything that exists,
including his people, his own special possession.
The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is his name!
