Jeremiah 10:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² But God used his power to make the earth.
    His wisdom set the world in place.
    His understanding spread out the heavens.
¹³ When he thunders, the waters in the heavens roar.
    He makes clouds rise from one end of the earth to the other.
He sends lightning along with the rain.
    He brings the wind out from his storerooms.

¹⁴ No one has any sense or knows anything at all.
    Everyone who works with gold is put to shame by his gods.
The metal gods he has made are fakes.
    They can’t even breathe.
