Letter of Jeremiah 6:14 In-Context

12 that cannot save themselves from rust and corrosion. When they have been dressed in purple robes,

13 their faces are wiped because of the dust from the temple, which is thick upon them.

14 One of them holds a scepter, like a district judge, but is unable to destroy anyone who offends it.

15 Another has a dagger in its right hand, and an ax, but cannot defend itself from war and robbers.

16 From this it is evident that they are not gods; so do not fear them.
