Jeremiah 16:19-21
GOD’S WORD Translation
19 The Lord is my strength and my fortress,
my refuge in times of trouble.
Nations come to you from the most distant parts of the world
and say, “Our ancestors have inherited lies,
worthless and unprofitable gods.”
20 “People can’t make gods for themselves.
They aren’t really gods.
21 That is what I will teach them.
This time I will make my power and my strength known to them.
Then they will know that my name is the Lord.”
Jeremiah 16:19-21
New International Version
19 Lord, my strength and my fortress,
my refuge(A) in time of distress,
to you the nations will come(B)
from the ends of the earth and say,
“Our ancestors possessed nothing but false gods,(C)
worthless idols(D) that did them no good.(E)
20 Do people make their own gods?
Yes, but they are not gods!”(F)
21 “Therefore I will teach them—
this time I will teach them
my power and might.
Then they will know
that my name(G) is the Lord.
