Jeremiah 10:4
| ← Jeremiah 10:3 | Jeremiah 10:4 (KJV) | Jeremiah 10:5 → |
|---|---|---|
For the customs of the people [are] vain: for [one] cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
|
They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
|
They [are] upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also [is it] in them to do good.
