  • Jer 10:3-9 : 3 For the customs{H2708} of the people{H5971} are vain{H1892}: for one cutteth{H3772}{(H8804)} a tree{H6086} out of the forest{H3293}, the work{H4639} of the hands{H3027} of the workman{H2796}, with the axe{H4621}. 4 They deck{H3302}{(H8762)} it with silver{H3701} and with gold{H2091}; they fasten{H2388}{(H8762)} it with nails{H4548} and with hammers{H4717}, that it move{H6328}{(H8686)} not. 5 They are upright{H4749} as the palm tree{H8560}, but speak{H1696}{(H8762)} not: they must needs{H5375}{(H8800)} be borne{H5375}{(H8735)}, because they cannot go{H6805}{(H8799)}.
