Jeremiah 10:7-9

The Voice

⁷ Who wouldn’t worship You? It is only right;
    You are the King of all kingdoms.
The wise and powerful men of all nations in their realms
    are still nothing compared to You.
⁸ They are stupid fools for taking their cues from blocks of wood,
    as if that idol could lead them anywhere.
⁹ Beaten silver from Tarshish, and hammered gold from Uphaz—
    materials made by artisans and goldsmiths—
Draped with royal blue and purple,
    even with the work of craftsmen—still a lifeless object!
