Jeremiah 51:17-20
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 51
17Every person is stupid, devoid of knowledge; Every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols, For his cast metal images are deceitful, And there is no breath in them. 18They are worthless, a work of mockery; At the time of their punishment they will perish. 19The portion of Jacob is not like these; For He is the Maker of everything, And of the tribe of His inheritance; The Lord of armies is His name. 20 He says, 'You are My war-club, My weapon of war; And with you I shatter nations, And with you I destroy kingdoms.King James Version

New Living Translation
Chapter 51
17The whole human race is foolish and has no knowledge! The craftsmen are disgraced by the idols they make, for their carefully shaped works are a fraud. These idols have no breath or power. 18Idols are worthless; they are ridiculous lies! On the day of reckoning they will all be destroyed. 19But the God of Israel is no idol! He is the Creator of everything that exists, including his people, his own special possession. The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is his name!English Standard Version
Chapter 51
17Every man is stupid and without knowledge; every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols, for his images are false, and there is no breath in them. 18They are worthless, a work of delusion; at the time of their punishment they shall perish. 19Not like these is he who is the portion of Jacob, for he is the one who formed all things, and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance; the Lord of hosts is his name. 20"You are my hammer and weapon of war: with you I break nations in pieces; with you I destroy kingdoms;New International Version
