Yirmeyah 10:2-4

Orthodox Jewish Bible

² Thus saith Hashem, Learn not the Derech HaGoyim, and be not in awe of the otot HaShomayim; though the Goyim are in awe of them.

³ For the [religious] chukkot (customs, statutes) of the nations are vain delusions; for one cutteth etz out of the ya’ar (forest), the ma’aseh (handiwork) of the hands of the charash (workman, artisan), with the axe.

⁴ They deck it with kesef and with zahav; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it topple not.
