Jeremiah 10:5-7

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵Their idols^[a] are like scarecrows in a cucumber field,
    and they cannot speak;
they have to be carried,
    for they cannot walk.
Do not be afraid of them,
    for they cannot do evil,
    nor is it in them to do good.

⁶There is none like you, O Lord;
    you are great, and your name is great in might.
⁷Who would not fear you, O King of the nations?
    For that is your due;
among all the wise ones of the nations
    and in all their kingdoms
    there is no one like you.
