Baruch 6:14

14 And he that cannot put to death one that offendeth him holdeth a sceptre, as though he were a judge of the country.

Baruch 6:14 In-Context

12 Yet cannot these gods save themselves from rust and moth, though they be covered with purple raiment.
13 They wipe their faces because of the dust of the temple, when there is much upon them.
14 And he that cannot put to death one that offendeth him holdeth a sceptre, as though he were a judge of the country.
15 He hath also in his right hand a dagger and an axe: but cannot deliver himself from war and thieves.
16 Whereby they are known not to be gods: therefore fear them not.
