Jeremiah 10:12-14
International Standard Version
A Hymn of Praise to God
12 The Lord is[a] the one who made
the world by his power,
who established the earth by his wisdom
and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.
13 When his voice sounds there is thunder
from the waters of heaven,
and he makes clouds rise up from
the ends of the earth.
He makes lightning for the rain
and brings wind out of his storehouses.
14 Everyone is stupid[b] and without knowledge.
Every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols,
for his images are false.[c]
There is no life[d] in them.
