Letter of Jeremiah 1:36

Letter of Jeremiah 1:36 Context

³³The priests also take off their garments, and clothe their wives and children. ³⁴Whether it be evil that one doeth unto them, or good, they are not able to recompense it: they can neither set up a king, nor put him down. ³⁵In like manner, they can neither give riches nor money: though a man make a vow unto them, and keep it not, they will not require it. ³⁶They can save no man from death, neither deliver the weak from the mighty. ³⁷They cannot restore a blind man to his sight, nor help any man in his distress. ³⁸They can shew no mercy to the widow, nor do good to the fatherless. ³⁹Their gods of wood, and which are overlaid with gold and silver, are like the stones that be hewn out of the mountain: they that worship them shall be confounded.
