Jeremiah 10:5


Jeremiah 10:4 Jeremiah 10:5 (KJV) Jeremiah 10:6
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.
Forasmuch as [there is] none like unto thee, O LORD; thou [art] great, and thy name [is] great in might.
