Jeremiah 10:3-7 New Living Translation (NLT)

3. Their ways are futile and foolish.They cut down a tree, and a craftsman carves an idol.

4. They decorate it with gold and silverand then fasten it securely with hammer and nailsso it won’t fall over.

5. Their gods are likehelpless scarecrows in a cucumber field!They cannot speak,and they need to be carried because they cannot walk.Do not be afraid of such gods,for they can neither harm you nor do you any good.”

6. lord, there is no one like you!For you are great, and your name is full of power.

7. Who would not fear you, O King of nations?That title belongs to you alone!Among all the wise people of the earthand in all the kingdoms of the world,there is no one like you.
