Jeremiah 10:16-18

New Century Version

¹⁶ But God, who is Jacob’s Portion, is not like the idols.
    He made everything,
and he chose Israel to be his special people.
    The Lord All-Powerful is his name.

¹⁷ Get everything you own and prepare to leave,
    you people who are trapped by your enemies.
¹⁸ This is what the Lord says:
    “At this time I will throw out the people who live in this land.
I will bring trouble to them
    so that they may be captured.”
