Jeremiah 51:15-19

15 It is ^aHe who made the earth by His power,
Who established the world by His wisdom,
And by His understanding He ^bstretched out the heavens.
16 When He utters His ^cvoice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,
And He causes the ^dclouds to ascend from the end of the earth;
He makes lightning for the rain
And brings forth the ^ewind from His storehouses.
17 ^fAll mankind is stupid, devoid of knowledge;
Every goldsmith is put to shame by his ^{▼▼ Or graven images}idols,
For his molten images are ^hdeceitful,
And there is no breath in them.
18 They are ⁱworthless, a work of mockery;
In the time of their punishment they will perish.
19 The ^jportion of Jacob is not like these;
For the ^{▼▼ Lit Fashioner}Maker of all is He,
And of the ^{▼▼ Or Scepter; cf Num 24:17}tribe of His inheritance;
The ^mLord of hosts is His name.
