Old TestamentJeremiahPraise to the God of Jacob · 51:15–1951:15 He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.51:16 When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.51:17 Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.51:18 They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.51:19 The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts is his name.
