Letter of Jeremiah 1:25

25 They are bought at any cost, but there is no breath in them.

Letter of Jeremiah 1:25 In-Context

23 From this you will know that they are not gods; so do not fear them.

24 As for the gold which they wear for beauty -- they will not shine unless some one wipes off the rust; for even when they were being cast, they had no feeling.

25 They are bought at any cost, but there is no breath in them.

26 Having no feet, they are carried on men's shoulders, revealing to mankind their worthlessness.

27 And those who serve them are ashamed because through them these gods are made to stand, lest they fall to the ground. If any one sets one of them upright, it cannot move itself; and if it is tipped over, it cannot straighten itself; but gifts are placed before them just as before the dead.
