Jeremiah 51:15-19
Modern English Version
Jeremiah 51:15-19
Modern English Version
15 He has made the earth by His power;
He has established the world by His wisdom,
and has stretched out the heaven by His understanding.
16 When He utters His voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens,
and He causes the clouds to ascend from the remote parts of the earth;
He makes lightning with rain,
and brings out the wind from His storehouses.
17 Every man is ignorant by His knowledge;
every founder is humiliated by the graven image,
for his molded image is falsehood,
and there is no breath in them.
18 They are vanity, the work of errors;
in the time of their punishment they will perish.
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.

Jeremiah 51:15-19
New International Version
15 “He made the earth by his power;
he founded the world by his wisdom(A)
and stretched(B) out the heavens by his understanding.(C)
16 When he thunders,(D) the waters in the heavens roar;
he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth.
He sends lightning with the rain(E)
and brings out the wind from his storehouses.(F)
17 “Everyone is senseless and without knowledge;
every goldsmith is shamed by his idols.
The images he makes are a fraud;(G)
they have no breath in them.
18 They are worthless,(H) the objects of mockery;
when their judgment comes, they will perish.
19 He who is the Portion(I) of Jacob is not like these,
for he is the Maker of all things,
including the people of his inheritance(J)—
the Lord Almighty is his name.
