For this is Your rightful due.
For bamong all the wise men of the nations,
And in all their kingdoms,
There is none like You.
It is brought from Tarshish,
And agold from Uphaz,
The work of the craftsman
And of the hands of the metalsmith;
Blue and purple are their clothing;
They are all bthe work of skillful men.
He is athe living God and the beverlasting King.
At His wrath the earth will tremble,
And the nations will not be able to endure His indignation.
He has bestablished the world by His wisdom,
And chas stretched out the heavens at His discretion.
| << Jeremiah 10:7 | Jeremiah 10:9 >> |
