Jeremías 10

1Hear^H8085 ye the word^H1697 which Jehovah^H3068 speaketh^H1696 unto you, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478: 2thus saith^H559 Jehovah^H3068, Learn^H3925 not the way^H1870 of the nations^H1471, and be not dismayed^H2865 at the signs^H226 of heaven^H8064; for the nations^H1471 are dismayed^H2865 at them^H1992. 3For the customs^H2708 of the peoples^H5971 are vanity^H1892; for one cutteth^H3772 a tree^H6086 out of the forest^H3293, the work^H4639 of the hands^H3027 of the workman^H2796 with the axe^H4621. 4They deck^H3302 it with silver^H3701 and with gold^H2091; they fasten^H2388 it with nails^H4548 and with hammers^H4717, that it move^H6328 not. 5They are like^H4749 a palm-tree^H8560, of turned work, and speak^H1696 not: they must needs^H5375 be borne^H5375, because they cannot go^H6805. Be not afraid^H3372 of them; for they cannot do evil^H7489, neither is it in them to do good^H3190. 6There is none like unto thee, O Jehovah^H3068; thou art great^H1419, and thy name^H8034 is great^H1419 in might^H1369. 7Who should not fear^H3372 thee, O King^H4428 of the nations^H1471? for to thee doth it appertain^H2969; forasmuch as among all the wise^H2450 men of the nations^H1471, and in all their royal estate^H4438, there is none like unto thee. 8But they are together^H259 brutish^H1197 and foolish^H3688: the instruction^H4148 of idols^H6086! it is but a stock^H6086. 9There is silver^H3701 beaten into plates^H7554, which is brought^H935 from Tarshish^H8659, and gold^H2091 from Uphaz^H210, the work^H4639 of the artificer^H2796 and of the hands^H3027 of the goldsmith^H6884; blue^H8504 and purple^H713 for their clothing^H3830; they are all the work^H4639 of skilful^H2450 men. 10But Jehovah^H3068 is the true^H571 God^H430; he is the living^H2416 God^H430, and an everlasting^H5769 King^H4428: at his wrath^H7110 the earth^H776 trembleth^H7493, and the nations^H1471 are not able to abide^H3557 his indignation^H2195. 11Thus^H1836 shall ye say^H560 unto them, The gods^H426 that have not^H3809 made^H5648 the heavens^H8065 and the earth^H778, these shall perish^H7 from the earth^H772, and from under^H8460 the^H429 heavens^H8065. 12He hath made^H6213 the earth^H776 by his power^H3581, he hath established^H3559 the world^H8398 by his wisdom^H2451, and by his understanding^H2451 hath he stretched out^H5186 the heavens^H8064: 13when he uttereth^H5414 his voice^H6963, there is a tumult^H1995 of waters^H4325 in the heavens^H8064, and he causeth the vapors^H5387 to ascend^H5927 from the ends^H7097 of the earth^H776; he maketh^H6213 lightnings^H1300 for the rain^H4306, and bringeth forth^H3318 the wind^H7307 out of his treasuries^H214. 14Every man^H120 is become brutish^H1197 and is without knowledge^H1847; every goldsmith^H6884 is put to shame^H3001 by his graven image^H5262; for his molten image^H5262 is falsehood^H8267, and there is no breath^H7307 in them. 15They are vanity^H1892, a work^H4639 of delusion^H8595: in the time^H6256 of their visitation^H6486 they shall perish^H6. 16The portion^H2506 of Jacob^H3290 is not like these; for he is the former^H3335 of all things; and Israel^H3478 is the tribe^H7626 of his inheritance^H5159: Jehovah^H3068 of hosts^H6635 is his name^H8034. 17Gather up^H622 thy wares^H3666 out of the land^H776, O thou that abidest^H3427 in the siege^H4692. 18For thus saith^H559 Jehovah^H3068, Behold, I will sling^H7049 out the inhabitants^H3427 of the land^H776 at this time^H6471, and will distress^H6887 them, that they may feel^H4672 it. 19Woe^H188 is me because of my hurt^H7667! my wound^H4347 is grievous^H2470: but I said^H559, Truly^H389 this is my grief^H2483, and I must bear^H5375 it. 20My tent^H168 is destroyed^H7703, and all my cords^H4340 are broken^H5423: my children^H1121 are gone forth^H3318 from me, and they are not: there is none to spread^H5186 my tent^H168 any more, and to set up^H6965 my curtains^H3407. 21For the shepherds^H7462 are become brutish^H1197, and have not inquired^H1875 of Jehovah^H3068: therefore they have not prospered^H7919, and all their flocks^H4830 are scattered^H6327. 22The voice^H6963 of tidings^H8052, behold, it cometh^H935, and a great^H1419 commotion^H7494 out of the north^H6828 country^H776, to make^H7760 the cities^H5892 of Judah^H3063 a desolation^H8077, a dwelling-place^H4583 of jackals^H8577. 23O Jehovah^H3068, I know^H3045 that the way^H1870 of man^H120 is not in himself: it is not in man^H376 that walketh^H1980 to direct^H3559 his steps^H6806. 24O Jehovah^H3068, correct^H3256 me, but in measure^H4941: not in thine anger^H639, lest thou bring me to nothing^H4591. 25Pour out^H8210 thy wrath^H2534 upon the nations^H1471 that know^H3045 thee not, and upon the families^H4940 that call^H7121 not on thy name^H8034: for they have devoured^H398 Jacob^H3290, yea, they have devoured^H398 him and consumed^H3615 him, and have laid waste^H8074 his habitation^H5116.
