Letter of Jeremiah 1:68

68 The wild beasts are better than they are, for they can flee to cover and help themselves.

Letter of Jeremiah 1:68 In-Context

66 For they can neither curse nor bless kings;
67 they cannot show signs in the heavens and among the nations, or shine like the sun or give light like the moon.
68 The wild beasts are better than they are, for they can flee to cover and help themselves.
69 So we have no evidence whatever that they are gods; therefore do not fear them.
70 Like a scarecrow in a cucumber bed, that guards nothing, so are their gods of wood, overlaid with gold and silver.
