Jeremiah 51:15-17
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
15 He that made the earth by his power, that hath prepared the world by his wisdom, and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.
16 When he uttereth his voice the waters are multiplied in heaven: he lifteth up the clouds from the ends of the earth, he hath turned lightning into rain: and hath brought forth the wind out of his treasures.
17 Every man is become foolish by his knowledge: every founder is confounded by his idol, for what he hath cast is a lie, and there is no breath in them.

15 “He made the earth by his power;
he founded the world by his wisdom(A)
and stretched(B) out the heavens by his understanding.(C)

he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth.
He sends lightning with the rain(E)
and brings out the wind from his storehouses.(F)

every goldsmith is shamed by his idols.
The images he makes are a fraud;(G)
