Jeremiah 10:7-9

Good News Translation

^7 (A)Who would not honor you, the king of all nations?
    You deserve to be honored.
There is no one like you
    among all the wise men of the nations
    or among any of their kings.
⁸ All of them are stupid and foolish.
    What can they learn from wooden idols?^[a]
9 Their idols are covered with silver from Spain
    and with gold from Uphaz,
    all the work of artists;
they are dressed in violet and purple cloth
    woven by skilled weavers.
