Jeremiah - Chapter: 10


10:1	Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:
10:2	Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
10:3	For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the ax.
10:4	They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
10:5	They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.
10:6	Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.
10:7	Who would not fear thee, O King of nations? for to thee doth it appertain: forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like unto thee.
10:8	But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities.
10:9	Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple is their clothing: they are all the work of cunning men.
10:10	But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation.
10:11	Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.
10:12	He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.
10:13	When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
10:14	Every man is brutish in his knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
10:15	They are vanity, and the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
10:16	The portion of Jacob is not like them: for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: The LORD of hosts is his name.
10:17	Gather up thy wares out of the land, O inhabitant of the fortress.
10:18	For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this once, and will distress them, that they may find it so.
10:19	Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is a grief, and I must bear it.
10:20	My tabernacle is spoiled, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone forth of me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth my tent any more, and to set up my curtains.
10:21	For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.
10:22	Behold, the noise of the bruit is come, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons.
10:23	O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.
10:24	O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.
10:25	Pour out thy fury upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy name: for they have eaten up Jacob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.


10:1	Heare ye the worde of the Lord that he speaketh vnto you, O house of Israel.
10:2	Thus saith the Lord, Learne not the way of the heathen, and be not afraid for the signes of heauen, though the heathen be afraid of such.
10:3	For the customes of the people are vaine: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest (which is the worke of the handes of the carpenter) with the axe,
10:4	And another decketh it with siluer, and with golde: they fasten it with nailes, and hammers, that it fall not.
10:5	The idoles stande vp as the palme tree, but speake not: they are borne because they cannot go feare them not, for they cannot do euill, neither can they do good.
10:6	There is none like vnto thee, O Lord: thou art great, and thy name is great in power.
10:7	Who would not feare thee, O King of nations? for to thee appertaineth the dominion: for among all the wise men of the Gentiles, and in al their kingdomes there is none like thee.
10:8	But, altogether they dote, and are foolish: for the stocke is a doctrine of vanitie.
10:9	Siluer plates are brought from Tarshish, and golde from Vphaz, for the worke of the workeman, and the handes of the founder: the blewe silke, and the purple is their clothing: all these things are made by cunning men.
10:10	But the Lord is the God of trueth: he is the liuing God, and an euerlasting King: at his anger the earth shall tremble, and the nations cannot abide his wrath.
10:11	(Thus shall you say vnto them, The gods that haue not made the heauens and the earth, shall perish from the earth, and from vnder these heauens)
10:12	He hath made the earth by his power, and established the worlde by his wisedome, and hath stretched out the heauen by his discretion.
10:13	Hee giueth by his voyce the multitude of waters in the heauen, and he causeth the cloudes to ascend from the endes of the earth: he turneth lightnings to rayne, and bringeth forth the winde out of his treasures.
10:14	Euery man is a beast by his owne knowledge: euery founder is confounded by the grauen image: for his melting is but falsehood, and there is no breath therein.
10:15	They are vanitie, and the worke of errours: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
10:16	The portion of Iaakob is not like them: for he is the maker of all things, and Israel is the rodde of his inheritance: the Lord of hostes is his Name.
10:17	Gather vp thy wares out of the land, O thou that dwellest in the strong place.
10:18	For thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, at this time I will throwe as with a sling the inhabitants of the lande, and will trouble them, and they shall finde it so.
10:19	Wo is me for my destruction, and my grieuous plague: but I thought, Yet it is my sorow, and I will beare it.
10:20	My tabernacle is destroyed, and all my coardes are broken: my children are gone from me, and are not: there is none to spread out my tent any more, and to set vp my curtaines.
10:21	For the Pastours are become beasts, and haue not sought the Lord: therefore haue they none vnderstanding: and all the flockes of their pastures are scattered.
10:22	Beholde, the noyse of the brute is come, and a great commotion out of the North countrey to make the cities of Iudah desolate, and a denne of dragons.
10:23	O Lord, I knowe, that the way of man is not in himselfe, neyther is it in man to walke and to direct his steps.
10:24	O Lord, correct mee, but with iudgement, not in thine anger, least thou bring mee to nothing.
10:25	Powre out thy wrath vpon the heathen, that knowe thee not, and vpon the families that call not on thy Name: for they haue eaten vp Iaakob and deuoured him and consumed him, and haue made his habitation desolate.


10:1	Heare the worde of the Lorde that he speaketh vnto the, O thou house of Israel.
10:2	Thus sayeth the Lorde. Ye shall not lerne after the maner of the Heathen, & ye shall not be afrayed for the tokens of heauen: for the Heathen are afrayed of soch:
10:3	yee, al the customes and lawes of the Gentyles are nothynge, but vanyte. They hewe downe a tree in the wod with the handes of the worckeman, and fashyon it wt the axe:
10:4	they couer it ouer with golde or siluer, they fasten it with nayles & hammers, that it moue not.
10:5	It standeth as styf as the palme tree, it can nether speake ner go one fote, but must be borne. Be not ye afrayed of soch, for they can do nether good ner euell.
10:6	But there is none lyke vnto the, O Lorde, & great is the name of thy power.
10:7	Who wolde not feare the? O kyng of the Gentils for thyne is the domynion. For amonge all the wyse men of the Gentyles, and in all theyr kyngdomes, there is none that maye be lickened vnto the.
10:8	They are all together vnlerned & vnwyse in this one thynge. All theyr connynge is but vanyte:
10:9	namely, wod, syluer, which is brought out of Tharsis, & beaten to plates: and golde from Ophir, a worcke that is made with the hande of the craftesman & the caster, clothed wt yelow sylck & scarlet: euen so is the worcke of theyr wyse men all together.
10:10	But the Lorde is a true God, a lyuynge God, & an euerlastynge kynge. If he be wroth, the earth shaketh: all the Gentyles maye not abyde his indygnacyon.
10:11	As for theyr goddes thus shall you saye to them: they are goddes, that made nether heauen ner earth therfore shall they perysh from the earth, and from all thynges vnder heauen.
10:12	But (as for oure God) He made the earth wt his power, and with his wysdome doth he order the whole compasse of the worlde, with his discrecyon hath he spred out the heauens.
10:13	At his voyce the waters gather togethe in the ayre, he draweth vp the cloudes from the vttemost partes of the earth: he turneth lyghtenyng to rayne, & bryngeth forth the wyndes out of their treasures.
10:14	His wysdome maketh all men fooles. And confounded be all casters of ymages, for that they cast, is but a vayne thynge, & hath no lyfe.
10:15	The vayne craftesmen wt their worckes, that they in their vanyte haue made, shall perysh one wt another in the tyme of visitacyon.
10:16	Neuertheles, Iacobs porcyon is no soch: but it is he, that hath made all thynges, & Israel is the rodd of his inherytaunce. The Lorde of Hostes is his name.
10:17	Gather vp thy wares out of the land, thou that art in the stronge place.
10:18	For thus sayeth the Lord. Behold, I wyll now throwe as wt a stone slynge the inhabitours of this lande: at this once, and I wyll brynge trouble vpon them, that they shall proue trewe the wordes that I haue spoken by the prophetes.
10:19	Alas, how am I hurt? Alas how paynefull are my scourges vnto me? For I consydre this sorow by my self, and I must suffre it.
10:20	My tabernacle is destroyed, and all my coardes are broken. My chyldren are gone fro me, & can no where be founde. Now haue I none to sprede out my tent, or to set vp my hangynges.
10:21	For the herdmen haue done folyshly, that they haue not sought the Lord. Therfore, haue they dealt vnwysely with theyr catell, & all are scatred abrode.
10:22	Beholde, the noyse is harde at hand, & great sedicyon out of the north: to make the cyties of Iuda a wyldernes, & a dwellynge place for Dragons.
10:23	Now I knowe (O Lorde) that it is not in mans power to ordre hys awne wayes, or to rule his awne steppes & goyngges.
10:24	Therfore, chasten thou vs, o Lord, but with fauoure & not in thy wrath, bryng vs not vtterly to naught.
10:25	Poure out thyne indygnacyon rather vpon the Gentiles, that knowe the not, & vpon the people that call not on thy name. And that because they haue consumed, deuoured and destroyed Iacob, and haue made his habytacyon waist.
