Jeremiah 10:2-4

The Voice

² Eternal One: Don’t learn the strange practices and beliefs of other nations.
    Don’t be terrified by signs in the sky
        just because the other nations are.
³     For their traditions and customs are useless; there is nothing to them.
    A tree is cut down in the forest;
        then an artisan takes out a tool and carves it into an image.
⁴     They dress it up with gold and silver to make it more impressive.
        Then they nail it down so it won’t fall over!
