Letter of Jeremiah 1:10

Letter of Jeremiah 1:10 Context

⁷For mine angel is with you, and I myself caring for your souls. ⁸As for their tongue, it is polished by the workman, and they themselves are gilded and laid over with silver; yet are they but false, and cannot speak. ⁹And taking gold, as it were for a virgin that loveth to go gay, they make crowns for the heads of their gods. ¹⁰Sometimes also the priests convey from their gods gold and silver, and bestow it upon themselves. ¹¹Yea, they will give thereof to the common harlots, and deck them as men with garments, being gods of silver, and gods of gold, and wood. ¹²Yet cannot these gods save themselves from rust and moth, though they be covered with purple raiment. ¹³They wipe their faces because of the dust of the temple, when there is much upon them.
