Jeremiah 10:5-7
EasyEnglish Bible
5 Those idols cannot speak.
They are like scarecrows that a farmer puts in his field of vegetables.[a]
The idols cannot walk,
so people have to carry them.
So do not be afraid of them.
They cannot hurt you.
And they do not have any power to help you.’
6 There is nobody like you, Lord.
You are great and your name shows your power.
7 Everyone should respect you,
the King who rules all the nations.
You deserve that people give you honour.
There is nobody like you anywhere in the world.
Among all the wise people of the nations
and among all their kings,
there is no one like you.
Footnotes
- 10:5 ‘Scarecrows’ are images of people that a farmer uses to keep birds away from his crops.
