Jeremiah 51:15-19

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha CEBA

15 God made the earth by his might, shaped the world by his wisdom, and crafted the skies by his knowledge.

16 At the sound of God's voice, the heavenly waters roar. God raises the clouds from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain and sends the wind from his treasuries.

17 Everyone is too foolish to understand; every smith is shamed by his idols, for their images are shams; they aren't alive.

18 They are a delusion, a charade; at the appointed time they will be ruined!

19 But the portion of Jacob is utterly different, for he has formed all things, including his very own tribe; the LORD of heavenly forces is his name!

New International Version NIV

15 “He made the earth by his power; he founded the world by his wisdom and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.

16 When he thunders, the waters in the heavens roar; he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth. He sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from his storehouses.

17 “Everyone is senseless and without knowledge; every goldsmith is shamed by his idols. The images he makes are a fraud; they have no breath in them.

18 They are worthless, the objects of mockery; when their judgment comes, they will perish.

19 He who is the Portion of Jacob is not like these, for he is the Maker of all things, including the people of his inheritance— the LORD Almighty is his name.
