Letter of Jeremiah 44
Print
CEB
Everything that is done for the gods is phony. So why should anyone consider or call them gods?
NRSVA
Whatever is done for these idols is false. Why then must anyone think that they are gods, or call them gods?
NRSVUE
They are made by carpenters and goldsmiths; they can be nothing but what the artisans wish them to be.
RSV
Whatever is done for them is false. Why then must any one think that they are gods, or call them gods?
WYC
Forsooth all things that be done to them, be false. How therefore is it to guess, either to say, that those (or that they) be gods? [Forsooth all things that be done to them, be false. How is it to be guessed, or to be said, them to be gods?]
