Jeremiah - Chapter: 10


10:1	Hear ye the word, O house of Israel, That Jehovah hath spoken for you.
10:2	Thus said Jehovah: Unto the way of the nations accustom not yourselves, And by the signs of the heavens be not affrighted, For the nations are affrighted by them.
10:3	For the statutes of the peoples are vanity, For a tree from a forest hath one cut, Work of the hands of an artificer, with an axe,
10:4	With silver and with gold they beautify it, With nails and with hammers they fix it, And it doth not stumble.
10:5	As a palm they `are' stiff, and they speak not, They are surely borne, for they step not, Be not afraid of them, for they do no evil, Yea, also to do good is not in them.
10:6	Because there is none like Thee, O Jehovah, Great `art' Thou, and great Thy name in might.
10:7	Who doth not fear Thee, king of the nations? For to Thee it is becoming, For among all the wise of the nations, And in all their kingdom there is none like Thee.
10:8	And in one they are brutish and foolish, An instruction of vanities `is' the tree itself.
10:9	Spread-out silver from Tarshish is brought, And gold from Uphaz, Work of an artizan, and of the hands of a refiner, Blue and purple `is' their clothing, Work of the skilful -- all of them.
10:10	And Jehovah `is' a God of truth, He `is' a living God, and a king age-during, From His wrath shake doth the earth, And nations endure not His indignation.
10:11	Thus do ye say to them, The gods Who the heavens and earth have not made, They do perish from the earth, And from under these heavens.
10:12	The maker of the earth by His power, The establisher of the world by His wisdom, Who, by His understanding, stretched forth the heavens,
10:13	At the voice He giveth forth, A multitude of waters `is' in the heavens, And He causeth vapours to come up from the end of the earth, Lightnings for rain He hath made, And bringeth out wind from His treasures.
10:14	Brutish is every man by knowledge, Put to shame is every refiner by a graven image, For false `is' his molten image. And there is no breath in them.
10:15	Vanity `are' they, work of erring ones, In the time of their inspection they perish.
10:16	Not like these `is' the Portion of Jacob, For framer of all things `is' He, And Israel `is' the rod of His inheritance, Jehovah of Hosts `is' His name.
10:17	Gather from the land thy merchandise, O dweller in the bulwark,
10:18	For thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am slinging out the inhabitants of the land at this time, And have been an adversary to them, So that they are found out.
10:19	Wo to me for my breaking, Grievious hath been my smiting, And I said, Only, this `is' my sickness, and I bear it.
10:20	My tent hath been spoiled, And all my cords have been broken, My sons have gone out from me, and they are not, There is none stretching out any more my tent, And raising up my curtains.
10:21	For the shepherds have become brutish, And Jehovah they have not sought, Therefore they have not acted wisely, And all their flock is scattered.
10:22	A voice of a report, lo, it hath come, Even a great shaking from the north country, To make the cities of Judah a desolation, A habitation of dragons.
10:23	I have known, O Jehovah, that not of man `is' his way, Not of man the going and establishing of his step.
10:24	Chastise me, O Jehovah, only in judgment, Not in Thine anger, lest Thou make me small.
10:25	Pour out Thy fury on the nations that have not known Thee, And on the families that have not called in Thy name, For they have eaten up Jacob, Yea, they have eaten him up, yea, they consume him, And his habitation they have made desolate!


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	Hear the word which Jehovah speaks to you, O house of Israel.
10:2	So says Jehovah, You shall not be goaded to the way of the nations; and do not be terrified at the signs of the heavens; for the nations were terrified at them.
10:3	For the ordinances of the people are vanity. For one cuts a tree out of the forest with the axe, the work of the hands of the craftsman.
10:4	They adorn it with silver and with gold; they fasten them with nails and hammers, so that it will not wobble.
10:5	They are like a rounded post, and they cannot speak; they must surely be carried, because they cannot walk. Do not be afraid of them, for they cannot do evil nor good; it is not with them.
10:6	There is none like You, O Jehovah; You are great, and Your name is great in might.
10:7	Who would not fear You, O King of nations? For it is fitting to You, because there is none like You among all the wise of the nations, and in all their kingdoms.
10:8	But they are at once foolish and animal like; their tree is an instruction of vanities.
10:9	Silver beaten into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the craftsman and the hands of the goldsmith. Violet and purple is their clothing; they are all the works of skillful ones.
10:10	But Jehovah is the true God, He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to stand His indignation.
10:11	So you shall say to them, The gods who have not made the heavens and the earth, they shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens.
10:12	It is He who made the earth by His power, who established the world by His wisdom, and who stretched out the heavens by His understanding.
10:13	When He utters His voice, there is a noise of waters in the heavens. He causes the vapors to go up from the ends of the earth; He makes lightnings for the rain and brings forth the wind out of His storehouses.
10:14	Every man is stupid from lack of knowledge; every refiner is put to shame by the carved image. For his molten image is a lie and no breath is in them.
10:15	They are vanity, the work of delusion. In the time of their judgment they shall perish.
10:16	The Portion of Jacob is not like these. For He is the Former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance; Jehovah of Hosts is His name.
10:17	Gather up your bundle from the ground, you who live under the siege.
10:18	For so says Jehovah, Behold, I will sling out the dwellers of the land at this time, and I will distress them so that they may find Me .
10:19	Woe to me for my breaking! My wound is grievous. But I said, Truly this is a malady, and I must bear it.
10:20	My tent is ravaged, and all my cords are broken. My sons went away from me and they are not. There is no stretching out my tent any more, or setting up my curtains.
10:21	For the pastors have become stupid, and they have not sought Jehovah. Therefore, they shall not be blessed, and all their flock shall be scattered.
10:22	Behold, the sound of report! It comes, and a great commotion from the land of the north, to make the cities of Judah a desolation, a den of jackals.
10:23	O Jehovah, I know that his way does not belong to man; it is not in man who walks to direct his steps.
10:24	O Jehovah, correct me, only with judgment, not in Your anger, that You do not bring me to nothing.
10:25	Pour out Your fury on the nations who do not know You, and on the families who do not call on Your name. For they have eaten up Jacob. Yea, they have devoured him and have destroyed him, and they have made his dwelling place desolate.
