Jeremiah 10:3-5

1. 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 axe.

2. 4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.

3. 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.
