Jeremiah 10:9-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
9 Silver plates brought from Tarshish,
and gold from Ophir,
The work of the artisan
and the handiwork of the smelter,
Clothed with violet and purple—
all of them the work of skilled workers.
10 The Lord is truly God,
he is the living God, the eternal King,
Before whose anger the earth quakes,
whose wrath the nations cannot endure.(A)
11 Thus shall you say of them: The gods that did not make heaven and earth—let these perish from earth and from beneath heaven![a](B)
