Jeremiah 10:12-16 - A Hymn Of Praise To God

¹² He that made the earth by his power, That established the world by his wisdom, - And by his understanding stretched out the heavens, ¹³ At the voice that he uttered, there was a tumult of waters in the heavens, And he caused vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth, - The lightnings for rain, he made, And brought forth wind out of his treasuries.

¹⁴ Every son of earth hath become too brutish to discern, Every goldsmith, hath been put to shame by a graven image, - For a falsehood, is his molten image, Seeing there is no breath in them. ¹⁵ Vanity, they are, the handiwork of mockeries, - In the time of their visitation, shall they perish. ¹⁶ Not like these, is the portion of Jacob, For the fashioner of all things, is, he, And, Israel, is his inherited sceptre, - Yahweh of hosts, is his name.
