Jeremiah 10:16 in context

  1. 14Every man has become brutish and without knowledge.
    Every goldsmith is disappointed by his engraved image;
    for his molten image is falsehood,
    and there is no breath in them.
  2. 15They are vanity, a work of delusion.
    In the time of their visitation they will perish.
  3. 16The portion of Jacob is not like these;
    for he is the maker of all things;
    and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance:
    Yahweh of Armies is his name.
  4. 17Gather up your wares out of the land,
    you who live under siege.
  5. 18For Yahweh says,
    “Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time,
    and will distress them, that they may feel it.”
