Letter of Jeremiah 28-30

Common English Bible

²⁸ Since you know from these things that they aren’t gods, don’t be afraid of them.

²⁹ Why call them gods? Because women place food before these gods of silver, gold, and wood? ³⁰ Or because the priests sit in their temples with their garments torn, with their heads and beards shaved, and their heads uncovered?
