Jeremiah 10:3-9 For the customs of the nations are vain; it is a tree cut out of the forest, the work of the carpenter, or a molten image.

Brenton⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ For the customs of the nations are vain; it is a tree cut out of the forest, the work of the carpenter, or a molten image. ⁴ They are beautified with silver and gold, they fix them with hammers and nails; ⁵ they will set them up that they may not move; it is wrought silver, they will not walk, it is forged silver ^(10:5) They must certainly be borne, for they cannot ride of themselves. Fear them not; for they cannot do any evil, and there is no good in them. ⁶ (OMITTED TEXT) ⁷ (OMITTED TEXT) ⁸ (OMITTED TEXT) ⁹ brought from Tharsis, gold will come from Mophaz, and the work of goldsmiths: they are all the works of craftsmen, they will clothe themselves with blue and scarlet.
