Jeremiah 10:6
4 They adorn it with silver and gold and fasten it with hammer and nails, so that it will not totter.
5 Like scarecrows in a cucumber patch, their idols cannot speak. They must be carried because they cannot walk. Do not fear them, for they can do no harm, and neither can they do any good.”
There is none like You, O LORD. You are great, and Your name is mighty in power.
7 Who would not fear You, O King of nations? This is Your due. For among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like You.
8 But they are altogether senseless and foolish, instructed by worthless idols made of wood!
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
