nor be dismayed at the signs of the heavens
because the nations are dismayed at them,

Jeremiah 10:5

5 Their idols ^{▼▼Hebrew They} are like scarecrows in a cucumber field,
and ^bthey cannot speak;
^cthey have to be carried,
for they cannot walk.
Do not be afraid of them,
^dfor they cannot do evil,
neither is it in them to do good.”

Jeremiah 10:7

7 ^eWho would not fear you, O King of the nations?
For this is your due;
for among all the wise ones of the nations
and in all their kingdoms
there is none like you.
