Jeremiah 10:1-3
International Standard Version

The True God and Worthless Idols

10 Hear the message that the Lord has spoken to you, house of Israel. 2 This is what the Lord says:

“Don’t learn the way of the nations,
    and don’t be terrified by signs in the heavens,
    though the nations are terrified of them.
3 For the practices[a] of the people are worthless.
    Indeed, a tree is cut down from the forest;
        it’s the work of the hands of a craftsman[b] with an ax.
