Jeremiah 51:17-19
New American Standard Bible
17 (A)Every person is stupid, devoid of knowledge;
Every goldsmith is put to shame by his [a]idols,
For his cast metal images are (B)deceitful,
And there is no breath in them.
18 They are (C)worthless, a work of mockery;
At the time of their punishment they will perish.
19 The (D)portion of Jacob is not like these;
For He is the [b]Maker of everything,
And of the [c]tribe of His inheritance;
The (E)Lord of armies is His name.

Jeremiah 51:17-19
Common English Bible
17 Everyone is too foolish to understand;
every smith is shamed by his idols,
for their images are shams;
they aren’t alive.
18 They are a delusion, a charade;
at the appointed time they will be ruined!
19 But the portion of Jacob is utterly different,
for he has formed all things,
including his very own tribe;
the Lord of heavenly forces is his name!
