Letter of Jeremiah 53
Print
They can’t render a verdict in their own cases, nor can they save those falsely accused, because the idols are powerless. They are like crows between the sky and the earth.
For they cannot set up a king over a country or give rain to people.
They cannot judge their own cause or deliver one who is wronged, for they have no power;
For they cannot set up a king over a country or give rain to men.
They raise not a king to a country, neither shall give rain to men.
