எரேமியா 10:3-8
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.
4
They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
5

6
Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.
7

8
But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities.
