Jeremiah 10:4-9

Great(i) 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. 6 But there is none lyke vnto the, O Lorde, & great is the name of thy power. 7 Who wolde not feare the? O kyng of the Gentils for thyne is the domynion. For amonge all the wyse men of the Gentyles, and in all theyr kyngdomes, there is none that maye be lickened vnto the. 8 They are all together vnlerned & vnwyse in this one thynge. All theyr connynge is but vanyte: 9 namely, wod, syluer, which is brought out of Tharsis, & beaten to plates: and golde from Ophir, a worcke that is made with the hande of the craftesman & the caster, clothed wt yelow sylck & scarlet: euen so is the worcke of theyr wyse men all together.
