Letter of Jeremiah 35-37

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³⁵ Likewise they are not able to give either wealth or money; if one makes a vow to them and does not keep it, they will not require it. ³⁶ They cannot save anyone from death or rescue the weak from the strong. ³⁷ They cannot restore sight to the blind; they cannot rescue one who is in distress.
