Letter of Jeremiah 1:47 In-Context

45 And they are made by workmen, and by goldsmiths. They shall be nothing else but what the priests will have them to be.

46 For the artificers themselves that make them, are of no long continuance. Can those things then that are made by them be gods?

47 But they have left false things and reproach to them that come after.

48 For when war cometh upon them, or evils, the priests consult with themselves where they may hide themselves with them.

49 How then can they be thought to be gods, that can neither deliver themselves from war, nor save themselves from evils?
