Jeremiah 10:9
Compare all
7 aWho would not fear You, O King of the nations?
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. 
8 But they are altogether adull-hearted and foolish;
A wooden idol is a1 worthless doctrine. 
9 Silver is beaten into plates;
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. 
10 But the Lord is the true God;
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.  
11 Thus you shall say to them: a“The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth bshall perish from the earth and from under these heavens.”

Jeremiah 10:9

Tarshish - Is the proper name of a sea - town in Cilicia, and being a noted port, it is usually put for the ocean, and may signify any place beyond the sea. Uphaz - Probably the best gold came from thence as the best silver from Tarshish.
