Letter of Jeremiah 1:56 Context
54Neither can they iudge their owne cause, nor redresse a wrong being vnable: for they are as crowes between heauen and earth. 55Whereupon when fire falleth vpon the house of gods of wood, or layd ouer with gold or siluer, their priests will fly away, & escape: but they themselues shall be burnt asunder like beames. 56Moreouer 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 layd ouer with siluer or gold able to escape either from theeues or robbers. 58Whose gold, and siluer, and garments wherwith they are clothed, they that are strong doe take, and goe away withall: neither are they able to helpe themselues.
