Jeremiah 10:3-6

NSB(i) 3 The people’s customs are erroneous and empty. It is wood cut from the forest. It is the work of the hands of a craftsman with a cutting tool. 4 »They decorate it with silver and with gold. They fasten it with nails and with hammers so that it will not tip over. 5 »They are like scarecrows in cucumber fields. They cannot speak. They must be carried, for they cannot walk! Do not fear them! For they can do no harm and they can do no good.« 6 There is none like you, O Jehovah. You are great and your name is powerful.
