Jeremiah 10:2-5

Great(i) 2 Thus sayeth the Lorde. Ye shall not lerne after the maner of the Heathen, & ye shall not be afrayed for the tokens of heauen: for the Heathen are afrayed of soch: 3 yee, al the customes and lawes of the Gentyles are nothynge, but vanyte. They hewe downe a tree in the wod with the handes of the worckeman, and fashyon it wt the axe: 4 they couer it ouer with golde or siluer, they fasten it with nayles & hammers, that it moue not. 5 It standeth as styf as the palme tree, it can nether speake ner go one fote, but must be borne. Be not ye afrayed of soch, for they can do nether good ner euell.
