Jeremiah 10:2-4

Lexham English Bible

“You must not learn the way of the nations,
    and you must not be dismayed by the signs of the heavens,
    for the nations are dismayed by them.
³ For the statutes of the peoples are vanity,
    for it is a tree cut down from the forest,
    the work of the hands of a craftsman with the tool.
⁴ He decorates it with silver and gold,
    they strengthen it with nails and hammers,
    so that it does not stagger.
