Jeremiah 10

1 Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:

Hear the word which he has spoken Yahweh to you O house of Israel.

2 thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the nations, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the nations are dismayed at them.

Thus - he says Yahweh [the] way of the nations may not you learn and from [the] signs of the heavens may not you be dismayed for they are dismayed the nations from them.

3 For the customs of the peoples are vanity: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the axe.

For [the] customs of the peoples [is] futility it for a tree from a forest someone has cut down it [the] work of [the] hands of a craftsman with tool.

4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.

With silver and with gold he beautifies it with nails and with hammers they make strong them and not it will wobble.

5 They are like a palm tree, of turned work, and speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither is it in them to do good.

[are] like A scarecrow of a cucumber field they and not they speak certainly they are carried for not they walk may not you be afraid from them for not they do harm and also [is] doing good there not with them.

6 There is none like unto thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.

From there not [is] like you O Yahweh [are] great you and [is] great name your in strength.

7 Who would not fear thee, O King of the nations? for to thee doth it appertain: forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is none like unto thee.

Who? not will he fear you O king of the nations for for you it is befitting that among all [the] wise [people] of the nations and among all kingdom their from there not [is] like you.

8 But they are together brutish and foolish: the instruction of idols, it is but a stock.

And in one they are stupid and they may be foolish [the] correction of futilities [is] wood it.

9 There is silver beaten into plates which is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the artificer and of the hands of the goldsmith; blue and purple for their clothing; they are all the work of cunning men.

Silver beaten from Tarshish it is brought and gold from Uphaz [the] work of a craftsman and [the] hands of a metalsmith [is] violet stuff and purple clothing their [are the] work of skillful [people] all of them.

10 But the LORD is the true God; he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth trembleth, and the nations are not able to abide his indignation.

And Yahweh [is] God truth he [is] God living and king of perpetuity from wrath his it shakes the earth and not they will endure nations indignation his.

11 Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.

Like this you will say to them gods the who heavens the and earth the not they made may they perish from earth the and from under heavens the these.

12 He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding hath he stretched out the heavens:

[he] made [the] earth By power his [he] established [the] world by wisdom his and by understanding his he stretched out [the] heavens.

13 when he uttereth his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries.

To [the] sound of giving forth he a tumult of waters in the heavens and he made come up clouds from [the] end of (the earth *QK) lightning for the rain he makes and he brought out [the] wind from storehouses his.

14 Every man is become brutish [and is] without knowledge; every goldsmith is put to shame by his graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

He is stupid every person from knowledge he has been put to shame every metalsmith from [the] idol for [is] deception molten image his and not breath [is] in them.

15 They are vanity, a work of delusion: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.

[are] futility They a work of mockery at [the] time of punishment their they will perish.

16 The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts is his name.

Not [is] like these [the] portion of Jacob for [is [the] one who] formed everything he and Israel [is] [the] tribe of inheritance his [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.

17 Gather up thy wares out of the land, O thou that abidest in the siege.

Gather up from [the] ground bundle your (O [you who] dwell *Qk) in the siege.

18 For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time, and will distress them, that they may feel [it].

For thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to hurl forth [the] inhabitants of the land at the time this and I will cause distress to them so that they may find.

19 Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is [my] grief, and I must bear it.

Woe! to me on fracture my [is] severe wound my and I I said surely this [is] a sickness and I will endure it.

20 My tent is spoiled, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone forth of me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth my tent any more, and to set up my curtains.

Tent my it has been devastated and all tent cords my they have been snapped children my they have gone out from me and there not [are] they there not [is one who] pitches again tent my and [one who] raises tent curtains my.

21 For the shepherds are become brutish, and have not inquired of the LORD: therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks are scattered.

For they have behaved stupidly the shepherds and Yahweh not they have sought there-fore not they have prospered and all flock their it has been scattered.

23 O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

I know O Yahweh that not [belongs] to person way his not [belongs] to a person [who] walks to direct step[s] his.

24 O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.

Correct me O Yahweh only in justice may not [it be] in anger your lest you should diminish me.

25 Pour out thy fury upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy name: for they have devoured Jacob, yea, they have devoured him and consumed him, and have laid waste his habitation.

Pour out rage your on the nations which not they have known you and on clans which on name your not they have called for they have consumed Jacob and they have consumed him and they have made an end of him and habitation his they have devastated.
