" By this they are known not to be gods. Therefore don’t fear them. "

Baruch 6:16

menu_book Verse in Context

14 And he who can’t put to death one who offends against him holds a sceptre, as though he were judge of a country.

15 He has also a dagger in his right hand, and an axe, but can’t deliver himself from war and robbers.

16 By this they are known not to be gods. Therefore don’t fear them.

17 For like a vessel that a man uses is worth nothing when it is broken, even so it is with their gods. When they are set up in the temples, their eyes are full of dust through the feet of those who come in.

18 As the courts are secured on every side upon him who offends the king, as being committed to suffer death, even so the priests secure their temples with doors, with locks, and bars, lest they be carried off by robbers.
