Jeremiah 10:9-11
The Voice
Jeremiah 10:9-11
The Voice
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!
10 Just look at the contrast! The Eternal is the True God:
He is the living God and eternal King, not some lifeless idol.
The whole earth trembles when He is angry; nations crumble beneath His wrath.
11 Say this to anyone still worshiping idols: The so-called gods you worship did not make the earth and starry sky above it. And one day, they will all be blotted from the earth beneath those stars.

Jeremiah 10:9-11

9 Hammered silver is brought from Tarshish(A)
and gold from Uphaz.
What the craftsman and goldsmith have made(B)
is then dressed in blue and purple—
all made by skilled workers.
10 But the Lord is the true God;
he is the living God,(C) the eternal King.(D)
When he is angry,(E) the earth trembles;(F)
the nations cannot endure his wrath.(G)
11 “Tell them this: ‘These gods, who did not make the heavens and the earth, will perish(H) from the earth and from under the heavens.’”[a]
