Letter of Jeremiah 1:55 Context
52Who then may not know that they are no gods? 53For neither can they set up a king in the land, nor give rain unto men. 54Neither can they judge their own cause, nor redress a wrong, being unable: for they are as crows between heaven and earth. 55Whereupon when fire falleth upon the house of gods of wood, or laid over with gold or silver, their priests will flee away, and escape; but they themselves shall be burned asunder like beams. 56Moreover they cannot withstand any king or enemies: how can it then be thought or said that they be gods? 57Neither are those gods of wood, and laid over with silver or gold, able to escape either from thieves or robbers. 58Whose gold, and silver, and garments wherewith they are clothed, they that are strong take, and go away withal: neither are they able to help themselves.
